Supervisor Meeting 4

Progress Report

This week I have broke down all the production techniques I am looking to use and posted them on my blog, I have also set out a skeleton for dissertation so I can start to write it up as soon as possible. I have also reconstructed my interview questions which need to be finalised and have been posted on my blog.

The next thing I done was set out a concept, plan and draft cue sheet script for my soundscape which has been posted on my blog before my next meeting on the 29/02/2012 i hope to have finished a small questionnaire which will be used during the testing of my soundscape which has to be reviewed and finalised by my supervisor.  

 

Agreed action points

• Prepare concept for my soundscape
• Nail down clear production techniques for my soundscape
• Script a cue sheet for my soundscape
• Have a full detail breakdown of my soundscape
• Rethink and re-write interview questions

Draft Concept + Cue Sheet Script for Soundscape

Concept :
 Is to create a underwater soundscape from a whales point of view which will help tohighlight   the increase of man made noise pollution.

Plan :
Is to have the listener believe they are lying/sitting on the whales back as the whale makes it journey across the ocean and they will hear all the sounds as they pass from every direction.
