DV Expert Series: Producing Great Sound for Digital Video

Meer over het boek

To help readers create engaging soundtracks for video using any computer or software, this problem-solving guide examines the four key areas of audio production: technical principles; pre-production - the initial steps that guarantee a better track-designing, planning, scheduling, and budgeting; acquisition - the recording process both in studios and at indoor and outdoor locations, including basic room treatments, temporary acoustic fixes, voice-over sessions, and sound effects recording; post-production - everything from equipping the editing station for sound, to digitizing original content, synchronizing, manipulating, mixing, replacing the final sound on videotape, and more. This text features clear examples, step-by-step instructions, shortcuts, and expert tips and advice. The companion CD-ROM demonstrates how the techniques and processes discussed actually sound, and offers practical exercises.
