Editing First Audio Draft

Today me and my partner began editing our first draft for our experimental sound project. The software that we used was Final Cut Pro as we both felt confident using this program and less confident using software which is specifically used to create audio pieces.

We started by importing all of the files that we wanted to use and named them appropriately. We then reversed all of the sounds as we wanted the piece to be the sounds of different foods being prepared backwards. After we had reversed the sounds we then decided that some of the audio sounded better when it was played the correct way, we therefore ended up with some sounds being played backwards and were just left as they were.

After we decided which clips were going to be reversed and which would remain the same, we then arranged the different audio clips into an order that we thought that sounded interesting.



Although we were happy with what we had produced, our first draft was only 1 minute and 20 seconds long. This was an issue as the brief required our pieces to be 3 minutes long, however we thought that we would show what we had at the sound crits we have this week and we'll get some advice off our peers and seminar leader.
