We Have Film School At Home

Here, I just did a basic attempt at recording vocal audio, and syncing it to film. I think the issue is mostly one of consistency, which means that I have to opt for a clip-on mic, because otherwise consistent mic placement becomes a problem. The audio in this case has some distortion issues, but I think that is just a matter of adjusting the sensitivity of the mic.

I suppose this was also the first clip I’ve done in which I’ve had to even remotely “act” in front of the camera, though I just read a monologue from a website with some monologues.

To get the audio sounding correct, I think i’d have to ultimately take the audio files and “process” them in a separate program before importing them into DaVinci Resolve, as DaVinci Resolve’s audio controls are not very good? The audio has some mid-level distortion that I’d want to tamp down on. Some stuff to think about for the future, but for the time being, I’m going to move onto some other assignments.

I think next, I’m going to read through an Ozu script, and think about writing a very simple introductory scene, with some character movement, and perhaps storyboarding, and then shoot the scene.
