Postproduction After continuous experimentation, I finally listened back extremely excited with the sound of sonic divinity the filtering tool elevated the immersive experience and achieved the correct tonality and distinction between the two worlds of sound I am experimenting with. The soundscape evolves from ultrasonic frequencies into reality and then phasing between the two. Furthermore, […]

Soundscape: Introduction I am really pleased with the outcome of my composition/soundscape introduction. There are multiple elements to unpack, including the music composition, sound effects, and how they enforce emotion and narrative. The music composition enforces the tense feeling and bad vibes that the field recording produces of London’s busy traffic and chaotic sonic environment. […]
Panasonic Dish: Field Recording I’ve previously been using an H5 zoom field recording with the Panasonic Dish however, this time I used the mix 6 which has dramatically improved the audio quality. I was having some initial problems due to a lack of experience with mix 6, for example, I was receiving headphone output in […]
Field Recording: Behind the Scenes I planned to field record around Elephant and Castle, building a strong library of recordings to edit. The locations I recorded were from firstly the balcony of my home. Capturing sound from this height was an interesting process because the the way sound would travel in this environment. The buildings […]
Developing Idea Project 1: Audio-Visual My initial idea was to just create a composition however, this idea has developed further, and I will create an audio-visual work incorporating cinematography as well as composition. This is because editing video is a hobby of mine therefore showcasing this skill in a portfolio would promote future work in […]
Project 1: Shungite Project 1 Summary: In this first stage of this project I plan to capture field recordings of London and merge these in composition with ultrasonic frequency recordings. This project will create awareness of electromagnetic ultrasonic frequencies that surround us in our sonic reality. These are frequencies that exceed 20kHz the maximum range […]
Reflecting on how my work in progress might effect change, and where you think the power lies in that: Matarasso writes that “art creates change, but it should be in the hands of the person who experiences it, not at the command of another, whether artist or funder.”. (François Matarasso, 2019) Critical Reflection: In my opinion, […]
Project 3: Song Writing I plan to create and conceptualise an EP demonstrating my skillset as a songwriter. I am inspired and influenced by the artist Eminem and the genre of hip-hop. I would be focusing on the transformative effect of the voice and how the spoken word uses cadences and nuances as well as […]

Self Reflection Reflecting back, I most enjoyed working with sound for the screen however, ProTools is the standardised DAW in which I have still yet to complete a project, therefore, my goal this year is to use ProTools to the best of my ability. I enjoyed the roles of being a foley artist/engineer and sound […]
