Sound

My least favourite thing for sure is recording sound. It requires a lot of patience (although no more patience that it requires to set up a camera and frame a scene) and I find it difficult at the times to actually that care much. However I found it really helpful when we began working in groups and practicing the action of recording sound. It is much easier once roles have been assigned and a shoot has itself an AD, a director, a sound person etc. rather than one or two people doing everything. I found that when I was recording sound in Tuesday’s class, my sole responsibility was just just checking the levels of dialogue being spoken. When conducting shoots on my own it was such a burden but in a group it become a fulfilling role. The direction of my project isn’t really around the role of sound or recording dialogue but I’ve realised how important it is to any scene or shot. I feel as if you notice crap sound and do not notice great sound, which is the key to a great scene.
