Question

1. Imagine that your life had a soundtrack playing in the background at all times. Describe what this would sound like and if you would enjoy this possibility. What would the music depend on? Would the genre of music ever change? Explain.

2. As you have learned, ironically, a large part of sound production involves visual perception. How easy or difficult did you find it to work with Audacity and OpenShot? Why? What aspects of the programs do you think could be improved? Explain.
3. How would you handle working with a difficult actor in an animated film who simply did not follow your directions and kept trying to change the voices and dialogue? How would this affect the production process and overall success of the film?
4. Imagine that the sound artist on an animated film quit and you were hired to pick up where they left off. What might be some challenges that you would face? How could this potentially affect the movie? Explain.
5. After gaining a better understanding of what a large role sound plays in the success of a film for viewers, how would a viewing experience be different for someone who has lost their hearing? How might you alter other aspects of the film to make it more enjoyable for deaf viewers who could not experience sound?

Answer 1

For question number 1.

If I had a soundtrack on playing in the background of course I would enjoy this. Yes the music /genre would change based on my mood and how I am feeling that day. An example one minute I can be sad and be listening to sad and depress songs but the next minute I find out I won the lottery I would be happy and be listening to songs that make me happy.

Question #3

If I was working with an difficult voice actor who kept changing his/her voice and fooling off it would make the recording of the animation slower and even extend the animation release date. If the actor/actress kept changing the voice of the character it would look really bad in the animation, it would sound really weird. I first either decide if the actor has a good reputation and if not I would fire him/her.

Question #4

If a voice actor quits and I get picked up as the new voice actor first it would show the differences between our voices and it would be very weird and you wouldn’t be able to focus on the animation. Another challenge would be that I (the new voice actor) would have to do my hardest to match the first voice actors voice.

This is all I know for now

I thought long and hard.
