This project was focused on recreating the feeling of new love. From my original poetry piece Getting Lost to the gentle sound of spring rain to the sound of a fire crackling. I wanted to recreate the breathless, gentle and sometimes overwhelmingly sweet feeling of love. This project taught me how to play with gain to bring a track up or down; but more importantly gave me the skills to learn how to record quietly. It took a few takes to get my voice this clear. I edited and played around with this track, but I ended up uploading the track I first finished. My voice sometimes is drowned out by the music, but I think that lends to the overall feeling of the poem–getting lost. Before this project, I had little experience with Audacity, mostly just changing the gain, not importing several tracks. However, I find myself enamored with audio tools and look forward to the net project that leads me to a recording studio. I wouldn’t say that I’ve mastered audacity, but I came out with exactly what I went into trying to create, and that makes me happy. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
Chris, this is for you.
