Second Day of Sound Dub

07/11/19 – I began the second day of recording my audio today. However, due to the weather, we were limited in what we could record. This is because the high winds as well as rain would damage the diaphragm inside the mic.  Nonetheless, I recreated the background ambience of the scene by recording the sound of the wind going through trees as well as the rustling of leaves on the ground. I then wanted to recreate the noise of the characters running on the dead leaves. For this, I went to a highly vegetated part of campus and began recording myself walking. Similarly to the problems previously faced, the female XLR to ¼ cable was too short to record all the steps needed. Again, I will chop and repeat them in time with the characters footsteps. Retrospectively, I would have simply stayed in the same place and walked on the spot in time with the characters, saving copious amounts of time during the editing stage of the assignment.
