Nostalgia
For my first assignment in Immersive Listening: Designing Sound for VR, i had to design a stereo sound design sketch, and honestly I had no idea what it is. So I waited for T.K's email a couple of days after the class to start working on the assignment.
I created a scene using only sound, which was challenging to me because I've never worked with sound before and it's my first time using Reaper.
I suggest you listen to the sound clip before reading the rest for you to decipher what happened. A couple of classmates thought it was totally different than what I intended which was very interesting to hear.
Description: I walk towards my apartment and I can briefly hear a song in the background before opening the door. The music gets louder as I open the door. I find my sister sitting on the couch listening to my mom’s favorite song, so I take off my shoe, sit next to her and open our “memories drawer” to take out a family photo album. As we flip the pages, you can hear both of us laughing at some happy moments.
Original sound files:
Me walking to the apartment.
Throwing the keys.
Flipping through the pages and laughing.
Sound files from freesound.org:
Sitting down.
Sound of the drawer opening.
Taking off shoes.
Song in the background:
Om Kolathoum, Alf Leila w Leila
Note: I had to convert the format of the sound clip to be added in here from .wav to .mp3
