LA3: Apply Video Post-Production Techniques to the Creation of a Video Product
I began my short film showing the opening of a record player, along with a squeaky noise. I used the sound a cupboard opening to resemble the opening of the record player to almost give off quite an old feel to it ( since record players were most used back in the 60s and 70s ).
The scene then showed me putting the record onto the record player, to which I used the real sound - as well as when I was putting the needle down - to show the realism of the scene. Following this, the sound of putting the needle down onto the record is quite obscure therefore I don't think I could've remade it using other objects. To conclude, I wanted to keep most of the real noises in each clip to show the situation as it is - since many people watching the film may identify with it since many people own record players.
When the scene shows the needle being placed down onto the record, I didn't use the sound from the record itself since the song would be copyrighted. As the needle dropped, I inserted a song which I found on youtube - a Beatles song which had not been released therefore could not get copyrighted. I didn't put the audio straight onto the film, I played the audio from my laptop while recording it from my iPad and its microphone. I did this so it would sound more like a record playing with it's slight pitch changes and echo's - this also fits the theme since I put down a Beatles record which was originally released in 1965.
At the end of the film, when the record ends so does the song. Soon after comes the credits. I deliberately decided not to use sound in this part since the record had finished playing, so that was the end of the music.
