Sound workshop (Tom Joyce)





In our media studies lesson on Tuesday the 14th of January, Tom Joyce gave a workshop on sound editing and capture. He emphasized the importance of sound in creating the right atmosphere for the accompanying picture. Having been through the same course as us a year prior, I took his advice on board. Below are the the tools required to record sound cheaply yet effectively.




Left - Handheld digital recorder

Right - Long microphone





Tom explained that the easiest way to sync up audio to picture was the clap after 3 seconds and click both the record button on the camera and the microphone. This way, putting the audio and film together in the editing suite can be done with ease.

Tom also suggested adding in sound effects after the filming, this can be done using everyday items and a microphone and digital recorder. Below is a professional example of sound effects being created.
