Project 2: Auditory Imaging
We are given a task to create an audio image using any of the combination
below. The audio should create an image for the first person point of view to
be able to visualize on what is going on based on just the audio tracks. It
should be able to tell a story for the chosen scenario. We are not allowed to
use any voice or dialogs.
The choice scenario are:
1. Wildlife + Background
2. Everyday Home Life + Background
3. Cities + Transport + Exterior Atmosphere
4. Industry and Electronic sounds + Background
5. Weather + Background
6. Market + Rural atmosphere + Background
I thought about each scenario and highlighted the one that I think it's the
easiest. I'm not sure how to stimulate wildlife in first person except maybe
it's from the view of a hunter or Tarzan. Cities maybe. I'm not familiar with
industrial sounds. Weather sounds limited to rain and snow. In my own
experience, market in a rural area is more on smells than sounds, and voices
from fishmongers, which we are not allowed to use.
Story
A soft, insistent
beeping begins to break the
early morning silence, the
sound of an alarm clock gradually growing louder. The beep is silenced by a
gentle tap, followed by the
rustling of sheets
as the character stirs awake. The
air conditioner hums softly
in the background.
The muffled creak of the bed
frame accompanies the sound of a deep stretch and a long yawn. The
soft patter of bare feet
hits the floor, moving across the room. A window is opened, and the
quiet hiss of sliding glass allows the fresh morning breeze to sweep in, accompanied by the
distant chirping of birds.
Footsteps continue,
transitioning from the soft carpet to the smooth wooden floor
of the hallway. The bathroom
door creaks open, followed
by the
whoosh of the faucet and the splash of cold water hitting the sink, punctuated by the
occasional drip.
A toothbrush is picked up, and the
faint sound of brushing begins, rhythmic and soothing. The
faucet runs again, followed
by the
sound of water being swished and spat out.
Footsteps move back
down the hallway towards the kitchen. The
refrigerator hums softly as it’s opened, and the
quiet clink of a milk bottle being pick up follows.
After that, the
faint zipping of a bag and the jingling of keys
signal the character’s departure. The
door opens with a slight creak,
followed by the
muffled thud of it closing.
The house returns to its quiet state, with the
occasional chirp of birds.
I've highlighted the sounds I'll be using so it's easier for me search up
and I wouldn't branch off. I didn't highlight "yawn" because I'm not sure if
it falls under voices.
