For this assignment I had to re-dub the sound effects for a tom and jerry cartoon, the sounds and soundtrack had to work with the video image. I had to source the sound effects for the video so started by by finding a suitable soundtrack I set out to YouTube and found a jazz track that fitted nicely I ripped it from YouTube using video2mp3.com and added the audio track in Premier.
Next I had to find sound effects that related to the video, I found most of the sounds I needed on a sound effects website, I was able to find most of the sound effects I needed on the website however there were some I had to record myself, for example I had to find a rustling bin sound but could not find one therefore I had to record it myself, to do this I put a dictophone in a bin and shook it this worked very well, I also recorded some voices using people in my class. I was happy with the result of my video.

Task 1

            It is important to plan before shooting film or audio to avoid damage to equipment and bad sound or video quality. Bad sound over a video can make the viewers feel uncomfortable and gives the whole video an unprofessional feel. Filming in bad weather can be unpredictable and dangerous so planning is important to stay safe and professional.

for example this has bad sound http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aMS0O3kknvk
