Description

This course introduces students to the wide range of skills and knowledge required to be a successful sound designer and editor. Students learn practical skills in efficient digital audio workstation operation and how to streamline the audio workflow to meet the high turnaround demands of the modern postproduction sound studio, along with advanced skills in digital sound creation and transformation. Students also learn to recognise the social and historical context implied in different sound events, interpret spoken and visual narratives in image sequences, and deploy sound to reflect and enhance these narratives.
