Learning Reflection 10/8

I learned that there are several different types of sounds pieces: environmental sound, a documentary, abstract sound (montage), and narrative. Narrative has several different types. These types are linear (with an intro, climax, and conclusion), a circular narrative (begins and ends in the same place), and non linear (which often relies on list structure).

I also learned that every person has a different style when creating an abstract piece. Although this occurs with any type of art, I still found it very interesting. Each piece said something about that individual.

While editing my theme sound piece, I found it very helpful to just throw sounds into sound studio and start editing. I was unsure on where to start when I first sat down, but placing several sounds randomly turned out to be a great introduction to my piece. I now have a good idea for what I want the whole piece to sound like.
