SUMMARY

Role

Sound Designer

Intention (SMART Goal)

By March 2nd, as part of my film team, I wil explore the visal story rythm sturcture through the “visual story” book by Bruce Block to provide scenes that implement story rythym.

PRE-PRODUCTION – INQUIRY

Leader(s) in the Field / Exemplary Work(s)

Dane A. Davis– The matrix.

He stretches sound to become springy. He uses sound as interaction but controls it so

people don’t get affected by thematic noise.

Training Source(s)

1:00 Artlist youtube channel emphasizes on the skills of sound designer.

4:30 Cinematics sounds require rough noises for meaningful experience.

3:40 The sound needs depth and balance in movies.

3:20 Music and sound effects makes a great thematic movie.

6:12 creating multiple impact for different scenes are important.

PRODUCTION – ACTION

The (FILM, SOUND, or GAME Creation)

Film

Skills Commentary

I implemented visual structure rhythm in the making of different sounds and music for our film. The rhythm used in the setting of the scene to convey Pablo’s emotion of stress. Rhythm was created through chairs, windows, and posters that Pablo passed as he ran. This showed his stress by externally representing his thoughts. We created a song in the film that made the film more cinematic.

POST-PRODUCTION – REFLECTION

21st Century Skills

Ways of Thinking (Creativity, Innovation, Critical Thinking, Problem Solving)

We took multiple running sounds to create an accurate sound for the running scene.

Ways of Working (Communication & Collaboration)

I collaborated with the screen writer to make accurate sound rhythms.

Tools for Working (Info & Media Literacy)

Garage band, audio recorder, Visual story book, and microphone.

Ways of Living in the World (Life & Career)

When we produced the music in our film, it wasn’t up to the standard of the film. Then we redid it, giving us practice, for when a project needs to be redone in a real practice.

Reactions to the Final Version

Michelle liked how I spoke confidently and faced the audience.

Self-Evaluation of Final Version

From my experience of working on the film, I worked hard on it and I think it turned out pretty good. My team and I need to work on implementing better, more accurate sounds.

What I Learned and Problems I Solved

I learned to use background knowledge on making music and sounds to implement good music. This shows how effective it can be to know skills that are beneficial in the future.

Let objects blur
 Line and Shape:
Squint
evaluating the lighting
Stage movement carefully
create linear movement storyboard.
