Archive for the ‘The Beeches Beast’ CategoryThis is the Year 6’s visual response to ‘The Beast’ story. We’ve finished. Please listen to our story of the Beast of Frankley Beeches. Read the rest of this entry » This our very rough first edit of the story of the Beast of Frankley Beeches. What we have done is taken some of the material we recorded when we visited the beeches and put it in order to make a story. Next we need to write some script which will help the story work for the listeners, record that, add it to the edit then work out all the different sound levels and think about how we can use sound effects to improve what you hear. The woodsman we met on Frankley Beeches helped us to find Luke - who had gone missing during our hunt for the Beast of Frankley Beeches. We edited the sounds we recorded to create this small part of our radio programme about our hunt for the beast. What we like so much about this is the way Luke acted in his part. He sounds just like you would think someone would sound if they had got lost, been attacked by a monster, managed to escape and then found some friendly people to help him. We think Luke did a brilliant job. Please listen and decide if you agree. On our trip to Frankley Beeches we met a man - the woodsman - who told us that strange things had been happening at a farmhouse. This is something we recorded about the farmhouse. We edited the material and then added different sound effects which we had recorded at the Beeches. This is some more editing. In it we start to describe what the monster might be and what we should do about it. We found that different sounds create different effects and you dont have to know what made the sound to think about how you can use it. We also found that if you have missed recording a bit, you can go and record it again when you are editing. You just have to make sure that the background noise is the same. So if your original recording was outside then the new bit needs to be outside. The editing was quite quick once we had managed to get our school computers to recognise the software we were using. Hello. Welcome to our blog. This is where we will share what we are learning with the theatre group Stan’s cafe. This is our first post. If you listen to the mp3 file you’ll hear our first work on trying out editing the sounds we have collected. We had to record the sound, listen to it then decide how we wanted to use it. We then created layers of sounds to make it the way you can hear it. This one is a short extract from a trip to Frankley Beeches - a hillside near our school. It is the first entry in our podcast. |
