You may be asking, what’s with the photo and what does it have to do with audio editing?
Honestly? Not much. I just took this picture yesterday and I’m fond of it so yup, wanted to show it off a bit. Now that I look at it, I should’ve stepped back a bit farther or used a different lens.
Anywho, for my last project for convergence class. I had to edit audio. I had to take out all the uhms and breaths and put it all together. Maybe it was just me, but it was difficult after awhile because I kept listening to the whole thing over and over again.
After awhile, I could barely hear anything. It’s like my ears lost the sharpness after awhile if that makes sense. Rather pain in the butt, but hopefully I’ll get better at it sooner or later. It’s like eyes getting blurry after looking at a computer screen for too long.
It’s very important when working with video. I’m not sure if my future job will require that I be great at audio, but it can’t hurt to know. So mentally note, audio editing on my list of things I need to get better at.
I think I’m a visual person though so it’s just a pain in the butt to me with just listening.
Anyway, I’ll probably keep up with this blog. This blog was originally for a class as some of you may know, but I’m fond of this blogging thing and it’s fun to share my videos and pictures online.
So that’s that.
Since I have free time now, I’ll finally get my spring break video done and I’ll work on the inspiration video with the Alan Watts lecture on it.
And the documentary I need to get working on too. I’ll probably interview my sister next and then during the summer I’ll probably go see my mother’s family.
You think interviewing family is going to be easy? Nope, I think I’ve mentioned that I haven’t talked to my mother’s family in… probably a few years.
And I need more b-roll.
