In this assignment, you’ll experiment with recording different types of audio and work on finding a story within an event. If you need an audio refresher, check out my audio resources page<\/a>. Remember that you’ll return to this subject in a few weeks, for photography.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Find an event or a person<\/strong>\u00a0that interests you and has some kind of story that other people will care about. “Event” here is broadly defined \u2014 it doesn’t have to be a lecture or tournament. It could be dinner. It could be a ride on the ferry.<\/li>\n
  2. Record three types of audio<\/strong>: 1) a short interview<\/strong> with someone (minimum 5 minutes, but should probably be more like 10-15 min to get good content), 2) targeted environmental<\/strong> sound, eg, action sounds \u2014 what are people doing? (minimum 5 min), 3) general ambiance<\/strong>\u00a0or room tone (minimum 5 min). If your piece needs a voiceover<\/strong>, record that also (optional).<\/li>\n
  3. Make sure this audio fits together to tell a story<\/strong> of some sort. Why should we care? Don’t just record a list of things that happened. Step back and think about the larger significance. In your interview, ask people why they care. Listen to what they say and then dig a little deeper.<\/li>\n
  4. Copy all<\/span> the files\u00a0<\/b>from the SD card onto your external drive.<\/li>\n
  5. Bring all this audio to class <\/strong>on your external drive<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
