SOUND!!!!

During this process it became apparent that my sound levels throughout were not level. The camera was picking up lots of the background sound even though I had filmed outside opening hours to avoid this. However what I had failed to do was take a wild track, this is when you film the surroundings for a minute so that you can then use this to settle sound levels. Mr Gibbs told me that there is a programme that can be used to level out all the sound. What I had to do was extract all of the sound from both interview and real time images into one soundtrack then export into this programme and level out the sound. This was such a relief as otherwise I would have had to either re-film or leave the sound the way it was.
