I have planned to incorporate
sound effects into main website layout - possibly into hyperlinked icons and
background music too.
I will use Adobe Audition CC program for audio editing, which was introduced to us in the lecture couple weeks ago. I found it easy to understand and work with.

On other hand I have easy
access to use Apple produced Logic Pro X music production software. It
is massively popular among professional music producers and engineers.
Logic is the best for
creating music itself but Audition is mainly for editing audio files. Therefore
Audition is my go to application for this task. Audition is great for changing files format, simply mastering
tracks or very useful noise removal tool.

SoundClound has
dedicated copyright free section collecting hundreds of music files. Website
also offers advanced search tool for this type of music. One of my favourite is
CopyrightFreeNetwork SoundClound profile.

During our lecture
discussing this topic we have been introduced http://www.mobygratis.com website were
artist Moby offers his music copyright free for students or non-profit
filmmakers. I am Moby fan personally so I think I will definitely take some
advantage of this opportunity.

Lastly I want to
upgrade my camera equipment and purchase professional camera microphone. As I
plan to film interviews for this project I think it would be beneficial to have external microphone in the future too. After I have done some research I am trying to decide between
external sound recorder (Zoom H1) and RØDE VideoMic GO On Camera Microphone.
The external RØDE
microphone is widely popular and has great result producing good quality recording.
It doesn’t require any batteries and it is easily portable.
The sound recorder
allow user to have control over the sound recording while shooting the video.
This technique is called ‘Dual Sound Recording’.
