Graduate Project Blog Week 4-Organising Auditions and Creating a Guide to Effective Sound

This week, I was tasked with creating a guide for contributors taking part remotely on how they can achieve high quality sound at home. I created a two page document where I broke down some key areas such as: how to record better on your phone, how to record SFX or Foley, how to record outside and how to create a 'dead space' in your environment.

I also used some visuals to illustrate my tips/advice. I based the document on what I learnt in the sound workshop the previous week but in a more simple and relevant context for the purposes of this guide.

An example image of the document can be seen below:
