Drift 3

Final

2008-04-28T08:25:00.001-07:00

This is my final piece.

Rough Cut #3

2008-04-26T11:38:00.000-07:00

This is my last rough cut before my final. I have some sound and I just need to plug some more in. I more or less wanted to show my stages in my editing rather than do it all and then change some things here and there.

Rough Cut #2

2008-04-25T10:12:00.000-07:00

This is the second cut that I did. I trimmed down the images and I tried to make them flow a little bit more. There is still no sound but I wanted to make sure that my images were correct first.

This is just a rough cut that has no sounds yet. I have put all my images together and I still need to edit that.

Strategy

2008-04-25T09:22:00.000-07:00

My strategy for this drift was to walk in a different area so I could get more sounds and different sounds. I decided to walk in Brookfield. I shook a dice and it led me around Brookfield. I didn't get a lot of sounds in the first walk so I wanted to choose a place that would benefit me and the sound quality.

When looking for my sound and images I want to choose sounds and images that will be useful. My last 2 drifts I felt that I had way to many non-useful images or sounds and I wanted to find things that I would really want to use.

10 questions

2008-04-07T12:16:00.000-07:00

1. What new sounds can I ind in the country?

2. Am I going to find different images because I am in the country or am I going to find the samw things?

3. If I go out at night will I find new pictures?

4. If I go out at night will I find new sounds?

5. Will I enjoy and find more things on this walk than in the last two?

6. Can I capture an unusual sound?

7. Are there any hills that I can climb to get a better view of the area?

8. Can I find a secret road or secret path that will lead me to new sounds and images?

9. If I encounter an animal will I be able to capture them?

10. Will I be able to make this in one walk or will I have to go out more than once to find sounds and images?

Question 4

2008-04-07T12:14:00.000-07:00

I think my favorite part about the walk was from drift 1. I was walking and there was this older woman shoveling and I asked her is I could record her sound. We began talking and it just made me feel good only because I love meeting new people and it's great to hear an older voice and hear what they have to say.

Question 3

2008-04-07T12:09:00.000-07:00

One thing that surprised me after the drift 2 walk was that I for some reason didn't know that we had to take videos so I had to go out again on the same walk and take videos. It was frustrating because I thought I was on my way to being done. Also after drift 2 I didn't think it was going to be as intense as it was. I thought it was going to be like drift 1 but there was a lot more to do and I wish I would have given myself more time. Lastly I guess I didn't realize how compact my city is that I live in. I didn't think of it like that until this walk and I don't see anything wrong with it but I think I saw the same things and heard the same things.

Question 2

2008-04-07T12:06:00.000-07:00

With the two drifts that kept me at ease was that there were plenty of teachers to help me out. I think that the work days that we are allowed to come in and get help are great. I used them and I then felt that I knew what I was doing rather than doing it all wrong and feeling worried about what my TA was going to say. I think that during drift 1 when I did find some sounds it made me feel less worried about what I was going to use. There were three sounds that I knew were going to work really well and that made me feel better once I was done with the walk.

Question 1

2008-04-07T10:24:00.000-07:00

One of the situations that bothered me about both drifts is that the walks are so long. I only have a problem with it because I normally find my source of work or I work in one place. So walking for 3 hours takes a long time and I am in a places that I am not use to. The other thing that bothers me about drift 1 is that on my walk it was so snowy and so no one was around. It was hard to find sounds that I could use so I felt that I had little to work with.
