TZ08 - The Importance of Audio

Yes. Audio is pretty dang important. Yet it still is one of the most overlooked crafts in the industry. In this episode we explain why, in most cases, audio can even be more relevant than video. The point is made with sound effects; or how sound effects, used stylistically rather than realistically, can enhance a scene. To keep it interesting, all of the sound effects are homemade and improvised.

We'll cover: * Rule of sound vs picture, Audio as a stylistic device, Foley effects

Is there any cheap wireless mics that i can record audio to my laptop to add over my video when i start filming? any ideas?

[esotericsean]

@frostbite106 There are lots of cheap mics out there, yes. But it all depends on what you want to use it for. Are you recording audio for voice-over only? Or do you plan on using it to record actors in a short film? Send me an email with more info and I'll be glad to help you figure out exactly what you need :)

Please remove the music and re-upload, it distracts from the audio..

Maybe someday in the future we might (we're thinking about renting our own studio space).

We're from Buena Park, California, USA (south of Los Angeles).
