Sound Project

 We recently have been learning about soundscapes and how they can influence an audience during a film. We learned about how Foley sounds can be used to help create these soundscapes in tandem with digital sounds.

For the sound project we were tasked with partnering up and creating a soundscape for a short 1-2 minute film. This creation wasn't allowed to have any video. This allows for the sounds to be the only way for the audience to understand what is going on. We were allowed to use a maximum of 7 words in this film. We also had to use Foley sounds to create at least 4 of the sounds we would use for the production. The rest could be digital sounds.

We approached this project by first creating a word document to plan out what sounds we would use and in what order to properly tell the story. We decided on having the film be about someone taking a test in school. Once we figured that out we were able to create an order of where each sound should go. We also labeled which sounds we wanted to use for the Foley sounds. 

Our organized brainstorming sheet made the editing and creating process seamless as we had a clear and thought out plan for how we would assemble all of these songs.
