Description

Without a sound designer to create the perfect soundscape, the theatre, film, television and game industries are incomplete. In this day-long workshop, while applying the technical and creative aspects of sound, you will explore being an audio storyteller. Students will learn how to source and modify existing sound effects, how to create sound from scratch by capturing real-world sounds as well as Foley creation. Students will learn about sound design techniques, hardware and the software used in theatrical sound design. They will create their own theatrical production audio playback file, which controls the volume, fade in and out of their individual sound files. A final project will include building a soundscape to tell a simple story of the students’ invention.

Each student will be provided with a Mac computer work station for the day, and the necessary software, QLab and Audacity.
