Recording the Soundscape

For the soundscape I produced a variety of recordings using either a shotgun condenser or dynamic microphone depending on whether it was being recorded inside or outside. On the day I had recorded over 50 recordings trying to get 13 different sounds for the final piece. Some sounds were easy to capture such as the kick of a rugby ball, tackle or the team talk. However, other shots proved more difficult such as recreating the sound of wind and the passing and catching of the ball. To overcome these problems though I made sure that all other sounds were recorded to perfection and I would work with what I had for the more difficult sounds when it came to editing.


Below are some grouped recordings:
