Alongside my university work, I am also undertaking an ongoing project to improve my recording skill. This will play a part in my AP2 project, as i’m sure a lot of the focus will crossover. The project is called ‘100 Hours Project’, and the aim is just that; in order to best aquatint myself with the fine art of field recording, I have dedicated 100 hours in my last few months of university recording with the sound devices 633. I’m aware that the 633 is an industry standard recorder, and to boast 100 hours of documented experience with it would be absolute gold for my CV. I’ve begun the process already, and applied the recordings i’ve made to mini-projects, such as practice FMOD sessions. I’m also hoping to put together some kind of sound library from the recordings I make, in order to have something to work with upon leaving university.
