Sense of Space Docs

Sense of space – Proposal

For this piece we have chosen to explore and define the life of a tree through sound.
The piece will tell the tale of the life of a tree, from start to end, young to old, alive to dead.
The sounds used will progressively change, reflecting the seasons and health of the tree, climaxing with its destruction at the sawmill.

We will use a variety of sounds to capture the essence of the tree, using contact microphones whilst striking the bark, capturing the vibrations and then tinkering with reverb to create the feeling of the tree breathing.

We will also capture the sound of surrounding wild life, snapping twigs, crunching leaves and as much of the natural atmosphere that we can.

We will then piece this together in soundtrack pro, using layers in such a way that it will hopefully be evident what the narrative of our piece is with out explanation.



Contingency plan :


In case for any reason our planning fails or if we are unable to access the location, we will go ahead with the kitchen recording idea, purely for ease of access, it provides an ideal back up plan.
