Beyond The Classroom: Sound Design & Storytelling1 min read
Reading Time: 2 minutesThis presentation will explore how sound can be used creatively in film to expressively tell the story. One of the main themes of the presentation is that by applying an understanding of the principles of psycho-acoustics and human perception to the sound design process we will not only create better sounding films but also films that are more expressive and engaging.
