List of sounds I want to capture for short film (audio list)

For me personally, I believe that sound effects and background noise add depth to a piece of work. Therefore, adding the foliage sound into my own short film seems fitting as I want by finale film to be as authentic as possible.

When performing my Recce, it was obvious that my choice of locations would have some issues when it came to unwanted background noise such as main roads close to location with constant traffic, however on reflection I believe this would have helped with go to with the background of my film. In scenes such as the park scene where most of the dialogue happens, I wanted to capture 'peaceful' audio as the I believe this suited the serenity and tranquility so audio such as birds which can be edited during post production to be placed in the background and the dialogue can be heard as priory. I believe that the sounds from a busy road would have been good to record during the parts my main character is walking from one location to the next, adding in audio like this will help give the audience some context as to where she is, once in the park I was thinking of adding the sound of people talking in the distance to show that the park has other visitors too, in order to do this I will record my own conversation, once in the post production phase I will edit the audio gain to make it really quite, therefore the dialogue from characters is still audible.

Also during the post production phase, I will also add in sound effects. This will be slightly more difficult to record myself so I may use audio provided to me by the internet as for our finale scene I want there to be a high intensity to it and was therefore contemplating adding in a subtle heart beat into the scene, increasing the intensity until the end.

Audio List

  • Distant back ground noise of a busy road
  • 'Park/Garden noise' (Birds and general peacefulness)
  • Door slamming shut
  • Heart beating sounds to add impact during tense scene (...maybe)
