Kill the noise

After watching the slideshow in silence, my initial thoughts were still to put in soothing piano or violin. It felt like I could have added possibly sound effects such as alarm clock sounds or other noises but that wasn’t my original thought.

My original idea was the idea that I stuck with for the project and that was to make all my images reflect what anyone would see in a dream. I was pretty happy with most of my images. The only thing I was a little disappointed in was that I did not have enough time to digitally manipulate more. I did each image in PhotoShop and I tried to keep the faces and things you would normally remember in real life blurred out. I felt that I did that pretty successfully because I know I don’t remember a lot of details in my dreams so I wanted to keep that same concept. I added to text to almost act as a narrator in the slideshow which I thought just added mystery into each image.
My sound was written and played by me and I tried to write it so that it was dream-like and soothing. I thought it went really well because I slowed down parts for certain images and sped up for more intense pictures. I didn’t use too many transitions that were fancy but I did a few blurring transitions that went along with the dreams concept. Overall I was satisfied with the entire project and glad that it was all mine and that none of it was taken from the internet or other copyrighted material.
