Catalog description

In this course, students learn the techniques and methods of sound recording on set through in class lectures as well as hands-on assignments to develop and improve the aural sense and the ability to capture ambiences, sound effects, and dialogue - both wild and sync. By the end of the semester, students will have a working knowledge of industry standard recorders, mixers and microphones whose general principles can be applied to other sound recording equipment. Sound theory, including concepts of sound perspective and reverb, will be also be considered to help transition from the set, to the sound editing process.
