bjbj [Music] Hi, I m John Burkhart, and today on Videomakers Tips & Techniques segment we
re gonna learn a little bit about recording sound effects. Having a nice sound effects
track will really enhance the production value of your finished video, and having an in-depth
sound effects track really sells the emotional content of your scene to the audience. Now,
it s not that difficult to do. The best time to go and get your sound effects is just after
you ve finished shooting your scene. You can go back in there with your microphone and
pick out small individual elements that help sell the entire soundscape. When recording
sound effects, you re gonna want to use a microphone that s very directional. Now, here
sort of on the top end we have a nice shotgun microphone with a Zeppelin and a wind screen
around it, and it s on a boom pole. And this is nice, because you can get very precise,
accurate sound recording from it. Now, if you don t have something like this, you can
actually use the internal microphone on just your camcorder. Because you re not actually
going to be using the video of this, just the audio, you can actually put this little
camcorder microphone in lots of different places and get a very accurate sound reproduction.
In both cases, you re gonna want to wear headphones so you can hear the exact sound that you re
recording. The first sound we re gonna record are the tires crunching gravel as they go
by. Then we re gonna record the car door opening and closing. Next, we ll record footsteps
of me walking away. Then we re gonna record the sound of the seatbelt being unbuckled,
and, finally, we re gonna get some ambient sound of birds and park noises. The first
scene we re gonna show you is the complete scene without sound effects. Hi, I m John
Burkhart, and today on Videomakers Tips & Techniques segment we re gonna learn a little bit about
recording sound effects. Now we re gonna show you the finished scene with all the sound
effects added. Hi, I m John Burkhart, and today on Videomakers Tips & Techniques segment
we re gonna learn a little bit about recording sound effects. As you can hear, adding even
the simplest of sound effects really adds a lot of production value to your video. I
m John Burkhart for Videomakers Presents, and this was Tips & Techniques. [End of Audio]
