Audio

On our film, we transferred the music and allowed it to play in the background. As we did this and played it back, we realised we had an issue with the sound; the music was extremely quite compared to the sound recorded in our film. To fix this, we doubled the volume of the music to 200%, and decreased the remaining audio to 20%. This made sure the background noise didn't overpower the music.
We decided to switch around one shot with a neighbouring shot as the lyrics of the music fit the content of this shot more than the previous;


Sink shot before the Stair's shot

We also had an issue with the beginning of the film. Because we had freeze frames at the beginning of our film opening but wanted the sound of running water over the top of these, we had to detach the audio from the original shot and copy and paste however many times was needed in order to play for the required length of time. When doing this, we heard mumbling in the background. We couldn't however get rid of it as this was the only section of audio with running water. Because we used the same section over and over again it also sounds a lot worse than it would have given just the small section we had on the original shot.
