Sound Design

Task 1 For this task I had to record 10-15 different sounds/sound effects from one location. I decided to record the hallway right outside my class. The reason for this is mostly because of the familiarity of my environment. That familiarity allowed me to easily pick up on where to record and what to record. All in all, the true purpose of this task was to, familiarise myself with not only the equipment involved in recording audio, but also the process of recording the audio itself. Through this process, I was able to gain a deeper understanding of how many factors can affect the audio recording process. From aspects such as how gain affects the amount of sound data that's recorded, to the placement of the mic in relation to the subject. For this task I was able to borrow a variety of equipment from the University that is used on professional sets. This equipment includes: -Boom Pole -Sennheiser Shotgun Mic -Rode Collar Mics -Zoo...

Task 1 Experimental Film

Final Film: Pre-Production Synopsis: In the distant future, humans are gone. In their place, advanced androids, nearly inseparable from humans, live on and continue to maintain the Earth under the command and supervision of The System. That is until one android starts to exhibit strange behaviour. Story: Ergo is about a nameless android who follows the commands it's been issued by The System, it receives commands at the start of the day, to act like a human. It does this for a while, however, we learn that this is not the life the android wants for itself, it is capable of more but gets tied down by the System and its commands. However, through its own efforts, it works to go against the System and prove its free will. To take a closer look at its themes, with this film, I'm looking at depression and dissociation. There are a number of people who are living their lives the same exact way every day without change, not actually being present in what's happening in their live...

Script

Task 1 Scene Analysis: Inglourious Basterds: The above scene is a portion of the opening sequence from the 2009 film Inglourious Basterds , directed by Quentin Tarantino. The sequence introduces us to the main antagonist of the film, deceptive and calculating Colonel Hans Landa, as he questions the dairy farmer Perrier LaPadite. The sequence showcases a psychological battle between the two parties, one where LaPadite must maintain his mask in order to protect himself, his family, and the family of Jews hidden under his home. Whereas, Landa wears a mask out of the sheer pleasure of his role. To poke and prod and scrutinize those he comes in contact with so that they can crack and reveal their secrets. We open on the morning of a scenic French countryside in 1941, with LaPadite and his daughters doing chores. Chopping logs for firewood, hanging laundry, a sense of peace is felt in the mundanity. However, this does not last long when the proverbial curtain is pulled back and ...
