Our class gets introduced to the sound creative aspect of media-making in the week 4 session. Every day, I am becoming more aware of the necessity of high-quality audio and sound in the production process. While scrolling around Reddit, I frequently came across postings that underlined the importance of sound and audio as the most significant factors to take into account while creating video content. As a result of the class lesson and the experience of putting together assignment 1 – the teaser, I have learnt to pay much more attention to the audio side of it and have given it much more respect than I used to, I had to admit.

We were then instructed to undertake a brief exercise of producing our own monster sound after seeing how imaginative the sound effects of the dragons were developed in the House of Dragons. The construction noise from across the street was loud and rhythmic, and we discovered that it could be used and edited in unexpectedly interesting ways. Though the outcome was not particularly impressive, the activity allowed us to design engaging content in a creative manner using what we had at our disposal at the time.
