IG2 – Computer Game Audio Cut Sequence Production

Methods and Principles of Sound Design and Production

1.

Produce a glossary of terms specific to the methods and principles of sound design and production. Using a provided template, you must research and gather definitions specific to provided glossary terms. Any definitions must be referenced with the URL link of the website you have obtained the definition.

As your practical audio production experience develops, by way of improving your initial report, you must also provide specific details of how researched definitions relate to your own production practice. This improved report must be uploaded in addition to your initial glossary research report.

Your completed glossary of terms and definitions must be uploaded to your Unit 73 IG2 assignment blog with the title Methods and Principles of Sound Design and Production
This is the glossary for the methods and principles of sound design and production.

Computer Game Cut Sequence Sound Design Analysis

Analyse the sound design of a range of computer game cut sequences. You must gather video examples and discuss how the sound design gives a sense of:

·         Setting
·         Mood
·         Game genre
·         Narrative

In addition, your analysis must explain how you think specific soundtrack assets have been produced (with reference to production process):

·         VST instruments and effects
·         Studio recording
·         Use of traditional instruments

Audio Cut Sequence Scripts

3.

Use Celtx software to produce a 2 page script featuring two characters. This will form the narrative basis for your audio cut sequence production. Your script pages must include correctly formatted character names, character dialogue and action description that clearly indicates reference to sounds that will feature in your audio cut sequence.

You must produce an initial draft and a final draft. Your final draft is expected to refine and improve upon the initial draft you produce.
                 
Your 2 page draft script and final draft script must be uploaded to a blog post on your IG2 blog using the title Audio Cut Sequence Scripts
This is my first draft script 
  

This is the final draft script 


Audio Cut Sequence Production Costings

·         Describe the job role of the sound designer and be able to define the job responsibilities of that role.
·         Equipment needed for sound recording and daily hire costs (researched with links and equipment hire company quotes)
Produce a budget expenditure spread sheet in Excel that outlines expenditure to a budget of £1500 and what this will be spent on.

Your research and budget sheet must be uploaded to a blog post on your IG2 blog using the title Audio Cut Sequence Production Costings
