Assignment 9

     The day we went to record our sound effects, Hurricane Sandy decided to come along as well.  So, our plan to get outside noises was slashed.  We decided to go to the mall to record lots of interesting noises.  The hard part about that was, was that the background noise was always loud.  A lot of the sound effects almost sounded like ambience because of that reason.  After we got as much as we could at the mall, we traveled to my house, which is located on Wrightsville Beach and also supplied us with dog my Moose.  We recorded as many house hold sound effects and noises as possible while waiting for the storm to subside.  Since the rain and wind never let up, getting beach noises was going to happen.  Instead, we recorded rain, wind, wet wooden stairwells, and cars driving by sloshing water.  Overall the noises turned out well.  The biggest thing that needed to be done was to either cut the clips down more or be more conscious of making noises that interrupted our recordings.
