Final proposal

I will be creating two soundtracks and we have to wipe out all of the audio and put all of the dialogue and audio back ourselves.
Soundtrack 1
Description of sequence: The name of the film which I will be using a clip from is Parent Trap and the clip will be 30 seconds long. The clip which I will be using is when they find out they are twins in the cabin. The director is of the film is Nancy Meyers.

Sound effect information: I will be getting sound effects for the sound track from free sound and YouTube. These places are good for the type of sound effects for my soundtrack. A sound effect which I will be using is a twinkle sound at the end of the scene which can shows happiness between them as at the beginning they didn't like each other.  There will also be a foley sound effect where I will be creating the sound myself. There won't be any copyright issues with this because I will be getting sound effect that has no copyright.

Music Information: The music which I will be using happy music which is going to be violin because it is calming and the it is a sign of peace and relief. This can effect the mood of the scene and the audience because of what is happening in the scene and it can show that it is happy and things are figured out. It is going to be non diegetic music because it isn't happening in the scene as they have added the music in after. I am going to be getting these off youtube because i believe that is a good place for music. Another sound track which I will be using is

Spoken word information: I will be writing a script for what I will be saying. I will be recording the dialogue on garageband on laptop because it will be easier and that I will be able to record in a quiet room and there won't be any background music and I will be able to hear myself while I am talking. The mood of the dialogue will be suspenseful but happy at the same time because they will be happy to find out that they are sisters. There won't be any lip syncing but we have to try to match the timing of the dialogue on the original scene.I will be the only one which will be speaking within in the scene because as they are twins the twins sound alike so I believe that i should be the only one talking within the scene.

Personnel: For this scene i won't be working with anyone such for the dialogue but for the foley sound effects i will be working with one other person.

Recording location, equipment and software: The recording location will be in a quiet room which is 219. I am recording in there because its a small room and that there is no lesson in there so i believe it is a perfect room to record in. The equipment which I will be using is a laptop for recording the dialogue and the foley sound effects on. I will also be using the mac which i will be finding all of the music and editing the scenes on. The software which i will be using is garageband and i will be editing on the software. The advantages of using all this is that with garageband you are able to watch the video while you are recording so you are able to see if you are in sync with the original or not. The disadvantage is that for the foley sound effect you don't have a lot of options of what you are able to use because we are in college and we don't know if the sound effect is gonna fit with the scene. Another disadvantage is that if the video is long you need to crop the scene down and some parts of the scene might be important. Also while you are recording you could mess up as you can't understand every word they are saying within the video. My workshop experience was good because I got to learn how to use garageband and but i found it hard to find sound effects and scene which i wanted to use and which would work well with the scene and if i can record the dialogue.

Soundtrack 2
Description of the sequence: The name of the film is toy story 3 and I will be cutting down the clip to 30 seconds long. The clip which i will be using for Toy story 3 is the western scene where they are on the train and the train starts coming apart and as people are trying to get them. The director of the film is Lee Unkrich.

Sound effect information: For the sound effects I will be getting them from free sound and YouTube because i believe that they have good sound effects there that i will be looking for and they are reliable. The sound effects which I will be using is a shooting sound when mr potato head comes out of the train. This sound effect builds suspense and no one know what is going to happen and that it can change the mood of the scene from the beginning. Another sound effect which i will be using is a lassing sound when woody comes to the rescue and attacks this. This can show that someone is here to help and save from what they are doing from stealing anything. A foley sound effect which I am going to do is when woody steps on him so the sound effect is going to be stamp on the floor and it shows that they have lost and someone is in charge and they aren't going to steal anything.

Music Information: The music which I will be using is from Youtube and the genre of the music will be western and it will be fast pace which will match what is in the scene. At the beginning of the scene everything is fine and the train is going somewhere and throughout the scene everything is fast pace such as when they are fighting and jumping from the different carriages. The music is non diegetic because it will be added into the scene and you won't be able to hear it when it happens. The mood of the scene is suspenseful and quick and everything is happening fast and quick paced which helps the scene pealed to the scene and the music fits well with the scene.

Spoken word information: I will be writing a script for the dialogue which is spoken in the scene. This will be easier and help us keep in sync with what they are saying in the scene. There will be more than one person talking because there are different characters in the scene. From part of the scene which i will be using there are 3 characters. For the dialogue we will all be recording at different times because i believe that it will be easier and in the quiet room we will be able to think quicker and also we can be in more sync with our character. The mood of the spoken word will be suspenseful as no one will know what is happening and if the others will be saved.

Personnel: I will be working with 2 other people for the dialogue as there are 3 characters within the scene and for the sound effect i will be doing them myself and there isn't a need for other people. I will be recording the sound effect in the room 219.

Recording location, equipment and software: The recording location will be in a quiet room which is 219. I am recording in there because its a small room and that there is no lesson in there so i believe it is a perfect room to record in. The equipment which I will be using is a laptop for recording the dialogue and the foley sound effects on. I will also be using the mac which i will be finding all of the music and editing the scenes on. The software which i will be using is garageband and i will be editing on the software. The advantages of using all this is that with garageband you are able to watch the video while you are recording so you are able to see if you are in sync with the original or not. The disadvantage is that for the foley sound effect you don't have a lot of options of what you are able to use because we are in college and we don't know if the sound effect is gonna fit with the scene. Another disadvantage is that if the video is long you need to crop the scene down and some parts of the scene might be important. Also while you are recording you could mess up as you can't understand every word they are saying within the video. My workshop experience was good because I got to learn how to use garageband and but i found it hard to find sound effects and scene which i wanted to use and which would work well with the scene and if i can record the dialogue.

Adding sound effects and evaluation

The scene which I chose to add sound effects is from Blade of Glory and its about ice skating. From the scene i went into iMovie crop part of the scene which I wanted to add sound effects for. Afterwards I opened the clip on garageband and muted all of the music for the sound effects which I have chosen. I also created a foley sound effect which is sound that i do myself. The sound effect which I done is drums by banging on the table which shows excitement and something is going to happen. The reasons which I chose these sound effects because I believe they went well with the clip and it helps builds the excitement and it has an effect on the mood of the video by adding the sound effects to it and there is also a meaning because they are happy to see each other.

Adding music workshop and evaluation



The methods we were able to choose from for adding our music is by finding music from youtube or free sound then add it to the clip which we chose and we are able to fade in and out with the music and the music should fit the scene. The other method is that we create the music ourselves from the instruments on garageband and it will have to fit with the scene which you have chosen to put the music over with. For this workshop I decided to choose the first method because I believe it was the easiest way and i could find music which would fit with the scene. The scene I chose was when the twins are in the cabin and they find out that they are twins and they are really happy. I found the music on youtube and converted it to a MP3. I believe the song fit well and the music was instrumental as the original was instrumental as well. I decided the music would be similar to the original. It is happy and calming and it is like a sign of relief that they are talking and they found out something exciting about each other. The meaning of the music which I chose I wanted the mood to be happy and things will get better from this and they will be able to be together again.

dubbing dialogue and evaluation


We had to do a dubbing workshop and first we had to choose which clip we were going to use to dub over and then afterwards we had to create it into an MP4 and write a script so we know what they are saying at what time. After we have finished we had to export it and then put it onto blogger. I believe the technical success with my dubbing was kind of a success most of it was in sync but i believe some parts wasn't because I couldn't keep in sync with the dialogue as parts were going too fast and then when i tried to pause it to start again it would keep going on.
