Obsah kurzu
The course will focus on the fundamentals of using sound to furnish meaning for your film projects. We will follow the thread of production through the various elements that comprise a soundtrack, based on our time limitations and available tools.
We'll spend most of our time viewing/listening to primarily narrative feature films and analyzing their various approaches to constructing the soundspace. We will also read brief theoretical texts on the soundtrack and film music and see how today's technology has made much of older existing theory somewhat redundant. The course if focussed primarily on films from the last 20 years.
In many classes we will watch a single film, stopping and starting it and using it as a basis for both technical and aesthetic discussions: “how did they do this and why?”
The course will begin with a basic introduction including theory & elements of the soundtrack; how sound is represented in film through dialogue, narration, music, foley, ambient sound, sound effect/sound design. We will then introduce the technical elements used to shape the sound space including volume, reverberation and equalization.
We will use this basic understanding to deconstruct various filmmaker's goals and desires in choosing to make scenes sound a certain way. Classes includes precepts, tips and tricks: from conception to sound capture to edit to mix to output and mastering, applying what we've learned practically while building your own soundtracks, technically and aesthetically.
With provided readings, bibliography & URLs. No prior sound experience is necessary but you will be expected to focus closely on listening and hearing films.
