Study Objectives:

The aim of the course is a mastery of studio technology and techniques, treatments of conceptual and partial mixing issues, collaboration with a director (the instructor in the role of the director) and another mixer, etc. After this, another aim is an introduction to post-synchronization technology.

Mode of delivery:

Speciální praktické cvičení.

Prerequisites and co-requisites:

Completion of „AV Post-production 1.“

Recommended optional programme components

Course contents:

Gradually pre-mixes of dialogues and background noise will be mixed and then one' own mix. The mix is to be created with vertical and horizontal structures among the current sound tracks in order to, in interaction with the image, provoke the intended reaction of the audience. As well there must be an overall balance in the mix and a creation of aesthetic sound transitions. An important aspect is the multi-channel format of the mix. Students practise their reactions and memory as well as adopt practices on equipment (or analogous equipment) they will complete their additional group exercises. Individual pairs (mixing takes place in pairs) work is managed on-going by the instructor and evaluated in the final check of the screening. There will be a discussion with the students over the results. After a presentation of additional equipment, instruction will proceed allong the following topics:

1) Creating a technological sequence - microphone, connections/cables, configuring the environment

ProTools, listening, volume control, screening

2) Preparing „loops“ - pre-preparations of logical beginnings and ends of recorded sequences

3) Selection of corrections, space, hall, working with many microphones.

4) Working with an actor - expression, volume, communication

5) Linkages - volume, expression, spaciousness, color

6) Combination of contact sound with post-synchronization issues

7) Post-synchronization of bacground sound - preparations and elementary practice recordings - pitfalls

8) Post-synchronization of music - elementary practice recording - pitfalls

9) Question of synchronism, dynamics questions

10) Computer management of post-synchronic background sound, creation of artificial sounds.
