11:00 Sound Designers at work
11:10 Sound Design
This week you are going to work as a Sound Designer.
You are going to pick from 1 of 2 supplied trailers. These trailers have been picked as students have enjoyed them, and they give many different opportunities to demonstrate your budding Sound Design Skills. We will watch them together first. While we watch think about what you could use where to create a realistic Sound Design for the game.
Acquire sounds needed from sites like FreeSound.org – there are many more, use whatever you wish.
While you can create your own sounds (online music and sound creation software) I recommend using existing sounds and polishing them to work with the visuals on the screen for this project – hit the deadline. Can you find walnuts cracking for a bone snap? Can you find an eating banana sound for something … gross?
When complete export your final trailer as (lastName)SoundDesign.mp4
Once we get into Sound Design production, all students should log into their gradebook and turn in missing work! If you don’t know how to log into your gradebook let’s get you down to IT to learn how to access it. You will need to be checking your gradebook weekly.
