Instructions

We were tasked to create a game audio of our choosing provided by the lecturer from scratch and record everything by ourselves.

Final Project 

The game I chose is:

I teamed up with Loh Kai Xuan like how I did with my previous task. Since we chose the same game to recreate the audio, we decided that we could share making the audio together so that it would be easier for us.

Recording Process

When recording the audio, most of the audios were our voices. We decided that it would be much easier to get a better result just by using the ranges of our voices. 

Here is the audio cue spotting list color coded:

Audio Journal 1

I'm really proud of how the beeping of the landmine audio. It came out perfectly like how I had imagined it would be.

For the 2nd one, I really like the explosion for the landmine. I did stack a few more audios in the final version but here is the edited explosion.

Moving on, for the vibration, the original was my voice audio so I edited it with pitch and stretch to make the hum go lower to sound like an actual vibration hum.

The kazoo was a fun little experiment which made the final ending scene more entertaining. I edited the audio to go higher in pitch and multiplied the audio a little with chorus.

Finally the diamond audio. I adjusted the clink to sound more high pitch and in the final version i repeated it a few times in the multitrack.

Compiling

Here is all the finalised multitrack sessions

Finally after all the editing, I went on Premiere Pro to compile all the audios together with the video. I adjusted some parts of the audio that weren't syncing properly and cut them a few times and did all the finishing touches that I was not able to in Adobe Audition.

Reflection

This project was really fun. I enjoyed editing all the audios even when my Adobe started crashing and lagging. My only obstacle was trying to figure out what tools to use to change the audios to how I wanted it to sound like. Other than that, I'm really proud of my final assignment work.
