Title: A Day on The Life of a Nurse
Semester/Year: Spring 2022
Software: Audacity
My general idea was to create an atmosphere based on the story narrated by my protagonist. As my character told her story, multiple different sounds accompanied the narrative. My idea is that anyone who listens to this project can imagine the scenarios and situations differently according to the audience’s interpretation. Something like watching a movie with your eyes closed and having only the sounds as the reference and the rest being completed by the audience’s imagination. For this project, I have used various sounds from freesound.com and Bensound and the protagonist’s voice that I have recorded myself. I use reverb, delay, panning, and I have modified the gains multiple times throughout my mix. The hardest part was moving the pan from one side to the other because audacity doesn’t have the pan automation option, so I had to improvise a bit.
