Film Opening Update 11
Today in lesson I made final adjustments to the audio for our project.
Last lesson we showed the most recent version of our project and due to a speaker being broken only one track of dialogue could be heard by the audience which was a severe flaw in the audio. Even though it was a hardware fault and in no way certain to affect all screenings I decided to make some changes to prevent this kind of event from ruining the audio, to do this I changed the left/right balance on the track containing Dan's dialogue from -100 to -75 and the track containing Amber's dialogue from 100 to 75. Doing this means that both tracks can be heard if one speaker goes down by allowing them some crossover, but not too much of a crossover that the stereo effect is negated.
Since my last edit of the audio a new recording from Dan was added in at the end, because of this it had not had the reverb effect put on it that the other ones had so I had to do that before the final export could be done to maintain consistency. Unlike the other dialogue in the scene I chose to keep this clip neutral in terms of left/right balance as it stands alone and is not part of a greater conversation so making it only play in one ear would not really have any effect on it.
