PROJECT1

FIG 1.1

In the third week we had to complete our voiceover assignment, our teacher assigned us to groups of four, we completed the form in class, and then each of us had to give a voiceover edit of this video

Fig 1-2

Go ahead, I'll download the dubs into audio format and import them into premiere pro.

I used my computer's recorder function to record my voiceover

I used a volume synthesizer to change my voice

Finally, I added the audio files I found in the table, edited the corresponding clips of the sound effects.

In audio editing, the EQ (Equalizer) is like a sound palette, capable of shaping the sound by adjusting different frequency bands. 

The human auditory range is 20Hz - 20000Hz, and this frequency spectrum is divided into 7 subsets, with each frequency band corresponding to unique sound characteristics:

Audio Frequency Ranges

• Sub-bass (16 - 60Hz)

  This is the low-frequency core area of instruments such as double basses and tubas, creating a sense of sound thickness.

• Bass (60 - 250Hz)

  It is the fundamental frequency band of human voices, and the main energy of telephone sounds is concentrated here.

• Low-midrange (250 - 500Hz)

  This is the warm frequency band of woodwind instruments like saxophones and clarinets.

• Midrange (500Hz - 2kHz)

  It is the high-frequency area of the fundamental tones of instruments such as violins and piccolos, and a crucial frequency band for voice clarity.

• High-midrange (2 - 4kHz)

  This is the overtone area of instruments like trumpets, determining the sound's penetration.

I used a recorder to speak my native dialect, Northeastern dialect, and recorded a piece of audio to prepare for different effects

Creative Sound Effect Production

Record a 5 - second personal voice and process it into 5 effects: 

• Telephone Sound: Attenuate the bass and high frequencies through the equalizer, enhance the mid-frequencies, and simulate the compression of a telephone handset.

• Sound in the Wardrobe: Combine the muffled sound effect (retain the bass, attenuate the high frequencies, and boost the mid-frequencies) with small-space reverb.

• Toilet / Bathroom Sound Effect: Add tile-reflection reverb (high diffusivity) to simulate the echo in an enclosed space.

• Underground Cave Sound: Set a long decay time (such as 1500ms) and low-frequency resonance to create a sense of spaciousness.

• Alien/Orc Voice: Lower the pitch, add distortion effects, and add high-frequency with a metallic texture to create non-human vocal characteristics.
