I thought I’ll add in my first ever TV production done during summer school. Obviously, the green screen sucked big time. It was really terrible but nonetheless an awesome experience. Another thing I’ve learnt? Never! EVEr! put the lapel mic in sight! iT’s seriously so unsightly and I’m so glad i”ve learnt from my mistakes. SHeesh.

So basically, I did a short lifestyle segment on guys being obsessed with the way they look.  I must say one thing i can relate to film TV is the soundscape. Unfortunately I do not have my first TV draft with me? The initial draft had terrible sounds and the cuts were not exactly in sync either. The next thing to look at would also be the usage of filters? SOme of my filters were a tad tacky? haha. I tried to use sephia tones and mid tones to give an “in the past” feel to some scenes. Likewise in film, in the color grading process and editing process. I guess there’s a whole lot of stuff to consider.

Soundscape: We’re probably aiming for a playful as well as meaningful melody/track which aka our composer Richard will excitedly compose!:)

Sound Effects: We need a lot of folely sounds including door knocks, utensils moving, cup sipping, footsteps, bread crumbs, fireplace, urn sounds, kettle and the whole list goes on.

I guess one ting we could have done was to film more atmos on-set? Cause we had a heck load of trouble trying to find a nice mellow garden atmos.
