I will likely be recording myself for the talking bit of this project but have not done so yet.

Steve Combs - 12 - Work Remix

Old Movie Projector Sound Effect

My audio story draft:
I wanted to use the classical voice that is often used in trailers as I thought that would fit nicely into the audio story as it is so closely associated with movies. While a sort of simple commentary as to what movies do for us was not in the list of types of audio story format, it said we were not limited to those so I decided to take a risk. My main issue with my choice is that I feel as though I could have done better, I was a bit rushed for time and so didn't get to revise it much. I was and still am conflicted as well because I was also strongly considering making my audio story into a short fictional tale or a series of connected very fictional tales. I also think was too short. In my audio story draft I chose to say what different types of movies do to us without stating the genre of the movie because I felt it was clear enough what I meant without doing so and I wanted it to sound more interesting. 

I decided to use my narrative along with some music playing in the background as I thought that would make it sound nicer. I used “Work (Remix)” by Steve Combs as the musical component (http://freemusicarchive.org/music/Steve_Combs/Waking_Up/12_Work_Remix)

in this as I thought it sounded nice and could work as being music came alongside movies.  I also thught it would be a nice kickback to the older movies by using ‘Old Movie Projector Sound Effect’ by Audio Productions (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=it4vOMqK2yk) as the sound component in my audio story, placing it at the beginning and end to make it feel like the whole thing was on a movie reel. 

I used the fade in and fade out features to make the pieces blend in together better. Also, I edited them on seperate layers until I was happy with how it all sounded, then making a single mp3 file from them all. I used my phone to record the narrative part.

Audio Story Draft

I received positive feedback from my draft logo so I decided to continue with the type of audio story I was doing with the classic trailer guy voice and music and sound clips. I did extend the narrative part in my final version as I though I was going to have to do and was suggested by both my peers and my TA. I also added another clip of the old film counter that played before a movie. I chose to do this because my peers enjoyed the nod to the older movies. I also mixed the volumes to fit better together and added some more fading effects for the same purpose. Doing these things has extended my audio draft in my final version which was a concern of mine (it being too short) and was a suggestion by my peers and TA again. I also tried to record a better quality narrative for the part I added. 
 I used “Work (Remix)” by Steve Combs as the musical component (http://freemusicarchive.org/music/Steve_Combs/Waking_Up/12_Work_Remix)
and ‘Old Movie Projector Sound Effect’ by Audio Productions (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=it4vOMqK2yk) and 'film counter' by ptimtiveneginnings (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=smzKnjhEcE8) as sound components.
