First Week

The first lesson of sound consisted of being introduced to the unit and the concept of sound, all students were asked to think about a game theme tune or soundtrack that is very memorable to them and why, then we were asked to present these verbally to the rest of the class.

 The theme tune of my choice was the very classic but very powerful metal gear solid soundtrack, this was because i find the metal gear solid soundtrack to be very emotionally powerful.

 After this I was introduced to a brand new sound software that i had not heard of or used before, mostly because it is on MAC, this software was Logic Pro, i was shown the basics of it an allowed to have some time getting to know the program.

 While getting to know the program i created this little sound clip.



 After showing this to our lecturer, Andy, he informed me that what i had created was made by adding and combining various looping sound snippets together, he also told me that if i wanted to create my own personal sounds i could simply select the instrument i want to make sounds with, click 'piano scroll' at the bottom of the screen and i can then begin making different sounds with that instrument.

 The most important thing I took away from this lesson i believe was being introduced to logic and the various ways i could create sounds.
