Workshop: recording ambience and room tone



For this task we were looking at ambience and room sounds. in pairs , we had to select a moving image sequence with background  noise, ambience and room tone that we could as a group recreate. For this workshop I worked with Sabrina Yaaqub and Cynthia Ankunda. The film sequence that we picked was a scene from twilight, a scene with the two protagonists in a forest. And we decided to go to the forest a record the sounds in there then add it to the film sequence to increase its realism and its mood and meaning.

For recording sound we choose to record using a microphone, because we thought it would be more sensitive to sound.

Improvement
From the task I learnt quite a bit such as every space has a sound of some sort. However in relations to improvement we had some technical problems it turns out when were recording that we didn’t turn on the microphone. However seeing that the actual recorder was on it did pick up some sorts of sound from the microphone. Next time when doing this task we will make sure that the microphone is actually on.
