internet fail and 30second 'sound' project.

Due to the failure of virgin media, our house has been without the net for 3days! so i have been doing some notes jotted into my notebook and i will be uploading scans of these and brainstorms ive been doing when the net gets back up! just hijacked (well not really) the mac lab. 
Also just finished the first mini project set which was a 30second video focusing on sounds (on transitional spaces!) we filmed and captured around the canal, the uni and by the road side. We over laid them, added transitions to gradually mix the sounds. In total we had about 7 audio channels with a mix of industrial, traffic, walking, animals, and water sounds. We chose to use a still image, of an abandoned building reflected in a calm water. Just to juxtapose the sounds we used. It calm out alright but looking back i think maybe a small video clip rather then a still would of been better to use.



We also got to view some of the other groups small sound clips videos. The one that stood out for me was Jakes group. It was an extreame close up of a mans face, hes obviously running. running away or to something. the sound is what struck me as being different. it focused on his heartbeat, which built up the tension. the expression on the face was nutrual so it lead the audience to make up what exactly would of been going it. it then zoomed out and showed him running threw a park. but the sound was cut. sometime silence can speak more then words.
