Task 1: Audio Dubbing

Week 2 (06/04/21)

Recording

For this project we were task to do a dubbing a scene taken from the animated movie 'SOUL'. We start on the second week where we have to:

1. Download the muted video clip and google DOC.
2. Import video into Premiere Pro;
3. Find & Download all ambient sounds/Sound effects online:

• https://freesound.org/
• https://soundbible.com/tags-movie.html

4. Record all the dialogue with your phone (text provided in google doc), make sure is lip-sync.

Week 3 (13/04/21)

Premiere Pro Editing

Since last week we have recorded our voices and find all the resources needed. For this week, we are task to:

1. Import all audio into Premiere Pro

2. Place all audio clips on timeline (A1, A2: Dialogue; A3, A4: Sound Effects; A5, A6: Ambient sound)

3.Export video with new added audio for week 4 review.

4.Upload the video to YouTube 

Fig 1.2 Importing recording and sfx into the movie

Since the movie has a lot of dialogue incorporated, I separated my recording into parts. That way it was easier for me to edit and drop the parts into the movie. The hardest part was making sure the voice is sync to the character's mouths.

For my video, I did volume adjustments on some part. I made sure the sound volume is balanced throughout the way. That way there won't be any causalities when watching the video later on, where one of the sound is suddenly louder than the rest.

Final Outcome

After showing the final outcome to sir Martin, He told me to make some changes. At first I thought ambience was BGM but it was a street sound in which I was wrong. Therefore I redo my dubbing sfx and here is the final outcome:

Reflection

This project in my opinion was the most fun from all the projects. I had a lot of fun dubbing and changing my voices. I find myself learning lot of essential things from premiere pro that i never learned before. I was able to decently use premiere pro features nowadays because of this module. Overall, I really like this project and I had a lot of fun creating them.
