Week 3

End of Week 3

# What was your plan for this week?

Task C2

# What did you actually do this week?

What I did this week was indeed prepare materials for recording as is now my "box of sounds" next to my workstation. What I also did was do some location recording on the trains and city roads of dundee and edinburgh which will be used later on in the process as well as getting the DR-07 replaced and all programs fully working on the new PC.

# If there are any differences between items 1 & 2, please explain why.

There are no differences or degrees of work


# What worked well this week?

One recording in aprticular has worked well and endeared itself to me for use, also preliminary recording tests with pro tools and evolve have worked well to great effect. Also I have heard back from the HMC and I will be having the screenings done for free considering its for the honours project and such and will have to make psoters an dorganise times very shortly.


# What did not work so well this week?

The location recordings were not perfect, a lot of interferance was inherant throughout the mixes with people talking, babies crying, or general urban city noises that I don't want at this stage. Also it has occured to me that the recordign and mixing of the audio will take longer than the implementationt than I planned and so I will re adjust what I do but still aim for the milestoens and deadlines set by me originally.


# What have you learned this week?

I have been learning SoundForge and all its wonderful little mechanics, also I've learned thatits not always good enough to keep throwing yoruself out there and doing lots of work, sure it will get yoru name out there as a hard worker, but if the material is not good enough...the end result could mean a bad reputation.

# Describe all the items that have been added to your portfolio this week?

Dry cuts from location recordings, evolve tests, continuous materials list.

# Do you have any other comments to make?

To infinity and beyond!
