Sound Scene

This assignment involved creating an identifiable scene through sounds I captured with my trusty Zoom H2 recorder. I must have looked like a crazy person in my swimsuit with headphones on, waving around my recorder. I was impressed by the amount of splash-back the H2 can take. This project reminded me of the importance of sound in storytelling, especially ambient sound. Important lesson learned: ALWAYS capture several minutes of background sounds. And the H2 is my friend, even though after this assignment, my local pool will never look at me the same way.
