photoshopped audiobook photos

This photo shows my first location and this photo was taken in the p.e department in my school and the reason why i am talking about this photo is because the objective was to record the sound of a whistle being blown so it could create an echo that could be able to get recorded on the audio recorder. And in this photo it was an excellent place to do a good recording of a whistle being blown because the sound would bounce off of the walls also creating the echo sound for it.

This photo shows my second location on this blog, and the idea was to get recorded sounds of cars or other types of automobiles whilst the door of the shop was closed so the sound was very muffled and a little bit isolated, but i don't think that the audio recorder did not pick the sound up at its best, maybe it was because the gain on the recorder was down low so that not a lot of sound was picked up of the microphone on the recorder.

this third location of this blog shows my school sports hall and the reason why i have chosen to write about this photo is because that as well as this being the third photo of this blog the location shows where a football was kicked to create a sound that has that pounding sound when the ball hits the wall, and whilst the ball was being kicked towards the wall i had to hold the audio recorder near the ball so that i could collect two sounds at the same time and that was the sound of the ball being kicked and the sound of the ball coming in contact with the wall when it was kicked. And the reason why i have chosen this location to record this sound is because there is no walls for the sound to bounce off of, this means that the noise of the football would be continuous and would not bounce off the walls making the sound not fade out.

These two photos maybe separate and look completely different but i can promise you that they are in the same building in my school and the building that the photos were taken in was Portman place, and the first recording was to close thee door of what building I was in and then i had to record someones footsteps behind the closed door but somehow make the footsteps somehow sound like that they are approaching the door so the footsteps would sound like they are getting louder. The second recording was to record 30 or more people at once so it sounded like a i had to record a crowd so i thought that maybe Portman would be the best idea to do because you have a lot of people coming out of d.t, science and art so a lot of people would be talking. And finally the second photo shows where the sound may have travelled to because the location of the sound is quite hollow and the sound has a large area to cover so in that photo i explained where the sound may have travelled to. and the effect that this has on the recording is that the audio recorder was held a fair distance away from the glass of the building creating a faint sound and another problem is that the size of the room also created a faint sound which is reverbed. And with the sound of ambient noise of people talking in a large room, this was a problem because when people talk in portman place the size creates an echoing delay feeling when you get more than one person talking.

In this photo it shows where I do my guitar lesson and the arrow is pointing to where the radio broadcast recording was done and the corner of the room was the best place to get an ambient noise that is in an acoustic environment. because it is very isolated in a corner of the room.
