For my project I wanted to do a type of slow media that helps me focus whenever I read. Anytime I read I like to put on my headphones and listen to relaxing soundscapes. My favorite one is a mountain soundscape that has a gentle breeze. The breeze is what I wanted to emulate the most in my project. It helps me slow down and just think clearer.
How I went about making it was first, I went down to the river along a trail that I will walk with friends. There I found a nice spot to record and set up my camera. I sat there for about 5 mins, letting the camera get plenty of footage, but also taking in the quiet space as well. That was one thing about the project I wasn’t expecting. Actually slowing down enough to record in nature was just as healing as listening to the nature soundscapes was. Finally, I took the footage home and added the relaxing music to it. Made some audio adjustments today in the lab then I turned it in.
