This has been one of the scariest weeks of my life Filled with two huge earthquakes. The second of which just finished, I felt the earth wobble beneath me it was so crazy imagine an entire country shaking and the neighbouring islands feeling the earthquake, the stories of my life.

Anywyas, back to the task at hand, this week my assignments takes me into the realm of consumer media and digital systems and I am supposed to answer the questions as if I were explaining to someone who is ignorant to the whole digital audio area, wish me luck in breaking things down into layman’s terms! ..lol

This week’s practical stays along the same line as last week’s practical the sound effect story, only now we are creating an audio track for a video clip.

The entire concept is quite interesting and thought provoking but why is the video clip one of the most intricate things that I have come across so far? Why

The answer is that George Lucas had something to do with it. To me he is like the Bill Gates of Film.

It does not help that I am not a Star Wars fan so I literally am making stuff up as I go along, the output should be very interesting.

If there were no Foley of light savers on the net I woulda surely died.

I am petrified for this one it’s really difficult for me as this is my first attempt at doing audio for video. Maybe if it were The Matrix or something, Keanu I understand, George Lucas I don’t. I am really gona have to rely on my imagination.

Anyways all of this being said, did I mention that this weeks questions are very intricate “Perceptual Coding Systems” geez

Lol it’s gona be a very long weekend.

I need divine intervention.

I’m once again at home doing homework on a Saturday.
At least today is not a scorcher it’s nice and cool hardly any sun

I still have not started my practical assignment the sound effect story I just need to come up with the story and the rest will fall in place
I really dunno what I am gona base the story on No clue

I know that when I get the storyline in place all will fall into its place

But right now I do not feel like thinking backlash from the week past I guess

Hopefully by tonight I will get some inspiration

Good luck to me
