Exercise 1: Audio Dubbing

This week, Mr. Martin divides us into groups of 5. We were instructed to search for audios and sound effects for a clip from the movie Everything Everywhere All at Once. After searching for the SFXs, we put them all together on one Google Sheet.

Then, I adjust and put all of the sounds together on Premiere Pro. I started by putting the hard sound effects first.

Then, I added ambience too to elevate the tension and suspense on the clip.

On top of everything, I added the voiceovers I recorded using my phone.

After I put all of the necessary sounds and ambience, I immediately went to audio mastering. I also shifted the pitch for Evelyn's and Deidre's voice to make them sound more girlish.

Here is the result:

Revision

I removed the violin ambience in the end. Since the focus of this exercise is to add sound effects, I figured that removing the creepy violin sound would be better. Here is the final result.

REFLECTIONS

Working with sound effects and dubbing sounds like a fun exercise. It is, but there are aspects we need to be careful about like mixing and the placement of the sounds. If not, the sounds can feel like its out of place and unnatural. This exercise helped me learn about audio effects and a little bit of mastering which improved my proficiency in video editing.

For example, animations, website designs, apps, signs, products, posters, books, essentially everywhere. In conclusion, typography is a very ...

TASK 3. FEEDBACK INSTRUCTIONS TASK 1. Gestalt Theory The word "gestalt" originated from German, which means "shape" or "form". Gestalt theory is a rule that give details the way human eye perceive visual elements. This principle is meant to show how the eye perceive shapes as a single form rather than separate simpler elements. These are 5 types of principles in gestalt theory. Principle of similarity is when eyes perceive similar elements as a whole picture, even when all elements are separate.

Principle of closure is when the eye fills in missing visual information to perceive a complete...
