Milo asked us to experiment on Ableton using Slevekings guidance. I used Ableton and took audio files which had been shared on moodle and decided to experiment with different filters and distortion. I was thinking about using this for one of the sound fx for the project. I adjusted the EQ to create more resonant…

Firstly we decided our groups. We initially started with a group of 3:Amara, Flora and me and then in the second week Axel joined. We decided on the idea of writing the script to an imagined film which we would write the sound track to. I wrote the original synapses to generate the mental image…

Personal Vision Statement Before joining this course I was studying fine art. I joined this course to develop my skills in the technical side of sound in place where I had access to in person knowledge\guidance and equipment so that I can experiment and explore in this new field. For me all mediums are linked…
