  Exercise 01 / Audio Dubbing  

We will be provided with a clip of a movie (Everything, Everywhere, All At Once) without any sounds. All we need to do is to dubbing the dialogue for this short film, and also add the sound effects and ambience sounds to it.

Before dubbing, we have to do a breakdown of the whole clip. For efficiency, Mr. Martin suggested that the class can be divided into groups and work together to make this spreadsheet. But all the sounds need to be searched and prepared by self.

After that, I started to record all the dialogue.

All the sound effects and ambience sounds that I searched on YouTube. 

The process of editing audio.

Exercise 01 Outcome:



  Exercise 02 / Sound Shaping  

In this exercise, we learned how to edit audio by using Adobe Audition. 
To create a phone voice sound effect, we need to use the Parametric Equalizer which is under Filter & EQ at the effect rack. Bringing down Bass and Treble, then raise Mid Range between 500Hz to 2kHz.

A muffled sound effect, where the sound is usually wrapped by something. To create this kind of sound effect, the Bass remains the same, the Treble drags to the bottom, and the Mid Range must be raised.

For the echo sound effects, we can apply Reverb.
Notes of Reverb sound effects:
1. Decay Time: Specifies the number of milliseconds required for the reverb to decay by 60 dB. The longer the value, the longer the reverb tail.
2. Pre-Delay Time: Specifies the number of milliseconds it takes for the reverb to reach maximum amplitude.
3. Perception: Simulates irregularities in the environment.
4. Dry: To add a subtle sense of space, set the dry percentage higher; for special effects, set the dry percentage lower.
5. Wet: To add subtle spaciousness to a track, keep the Wet percentage lower than the Dry percentage.

After completing the practice, we have to record 5 seconds of our own voices and apply the sound effects we learned.
