Final Audio Story

 

For the final draft of my audio story, I kept a lot of things the same from my draft but I added a could small details to make the audio flow better together. I decided to add music to my project, so I ended up downloading some creative commons licensed music from the internet. I like how the beginning of the song sound a little like a drum line with how crisp the snare is. I also made sure to turn the music way down because it was far louder than the audio I recorded. It took a while to find the right balance between the two but I think I found a good level for the music. I also made sure to fade out the music at the end of the project. I think it just made good sense to do that to give the listener a satisfying end to the project. I thought that would tie in nicely with my topic being related to drum line. I also went back and adjusted the levels for some of the interviews to make sure nothing was too quiet or too loud. Some of Logan’s interview was pretty quiet so I made sure to bring his answers up a little in the mix.  Other than that, I liked most of what I made in the draft. I kept all the interviews the same because I liked the interviews that I did and the quotes that I got. I think the edits I made flowed together pretty well and weren’t distracting to the listener. I think the edits I made for the final draft made the project stronger and make the whole thing sound much less empty. The music adds a lot to the project and really rounds it out. I think my final project is much more complete.
