My audio project is going to be made in a “podcast-like” kind of format.  I will be telling a story in my audio project, but will be using audio as another element to add another dimension to my project.  The preview included with this post is non-linear.  Meaning that what you hear is not the order that they will appear in the project.  Instead the preview is just a mix of the various sounds that you will hear throughout the project.  This preview is non-comprehensive as there are many elements of the story that I could not fit in a 30 second clip.

The music soundtrack that is being played at some points is from Kevin MacLeod’s collection.  This will serve to set an atmosphere throughout the podcast that will assist in the telling of the story.  This soundtrack will also be working with sounds that I create, and from the library of sounds created by those in the class.  This will hopefully give the listener an idea of what they might have heard had they been with me when the events of the story occurred.

I expect that the hardest part of this project will be trying to find a balance between the use of the music and the sound effects that I create.  In addition to this I expect that trying to find a balance between the loudness of the various layers of audio will be difficult as well.  I don’t want the transitions between the audio to be harsh, so that will also be another thing that I will want to carefully address.  Other than these minor obstacles I’m excited for the final product of my project.  Even though doing a podcast means I have to listen to a recording of my own voice.  Which I’m not happy about.
