Before our group begins the production process we need to prepare and research. Since I am the director I need to research into filming, lighting, sound, production design and editing so I can work with everyone else in the group and their roles.
Sound Recording
I found a webpage that gives good tips and tricks for recording sound when making short films.

This webpage by adobe give great tips and tricks: the first being get closer don't turn the volume up. This means for the close ups in the scene we will use the lapel mic so we can just record the subjects audio and not audio from the whole room and during the scene where that are a medium long shot or further we use the external mic connected to our camera.
Audio Editing
After Dylan has edited our opening Brandon and myself we unlink the audio from the video and run it through audacity to remove all the white noise that has been a reoccurring theme that I have noticed from watching some of the previous groups openings. Then after removing the white noise if needed we will enhance the audio of the actors speaking to make it more clear to hear when viewing the opening.
Music and Sound Effects
making the vocals more clear Brandon and I will go back through the video making our sound effects and selecting music and other sound effects for Dylan to edit into the film.
We will use websites like:
Freesound.org
Freemusicarchive.org
Proudmusiclibrary.com
Incompetech.com
Freeplaymusic.com
These website contain thousands of royalty free music tracks and sound effects that we would be able to use if we are unable to make our own.
