Progress of our work

To start I took all the interview material and placed it into a new Pro Tools session. I then took each interview one by one and listened to them all individually to figure out what material was useful for our film and what material wasn't useful. I then began to cut the pieces to give Tom our editor a rough idea of how long each shot needed to be on screen.

In the screen grab above you can see where me and Richard worked together on the sound to change the levels in the main music piece. The music we found was over powering when played alongside our interview material. Therefore we changed the levels on the main music piece to try and make it fit alongside the interview, so that they interview material was the main piece being heard. 



In this screenshot above, the second audio piece levels didn't match the levels of the interview material in the green. This material was significantly quieter. So as can be seen in this screenshot I have heightened the levels in the second audio piece, and played with the original audio to try and get the audio to be on similar levels. 


In this screenshot, you can see I have played about with the levels in this particular audio piece. This is because the contributor spoke significantly louder in some parts of the interview compared to the rest of it. To correct this I have changed the volume on the piece in to make the whole piece match in terms of levels. This makes the piece smoother and easier for the audience to listen to.
