Course Description

Sound and Music for Audio-Visual Storytelling explores the creative and technical aspects, aesthetics, and psychology of combining sound design and music for use with film, video, VR and other visual media. This course examines the interaction of sound and vision in a collaborative creative performance project that combines visual media and original music. In this course, the students will comprehend the importance of sound, which engages audiences: it helps deliver information, it increases the production value, it evokes emotional responses, it emphasises what’s on the screen, and is used to indicate mood. And they will learn how to correctly use sound effects, music, and even silence, which can enhance the storytelling dramatically.
