Lifted - Sound Design

---

Click here to view the Paris Rose Pixar Animation Sound Production.

Course Requirements

For this Project, you will plan, design and undertake a creative sound acquisition task, using appropriate sound design techniques. This will likely include Dialogue, Sound FX, Ambience and Music. The media clip you will be using for this project is the Pixar short animation Lifted. You must identify a range of sounds that you can acquire. The sounds you acquire should be a mixture of recorded and sampled sounds.

Your sounds should be collated into an appropriate sound design library. And should therefore show a clear understanding of the importance of file naming, grouping and file management.

Your completed sound design library should contain a minimum of 20 edited "good to go" sounds. This could be a mixture of both processed and unprocessed sounds.

Timescale for this project will be 3 weeks.

Project Deliverables

• A detailed project plan. This will include your response to the project brief, a detailed description of how you are going to achieve all necessary requirements of the project, a detailed description of how you will manage your time, identify opportunities to develop your knowledge and skills.

• A complete sound design asset document. This cue sheet will identify all of your sound assets, as well their time cues, a short description of the sound asset, using appropriate sound design terminology.
