I really liked the description of room tones, and recording atmospheres. The process of using the EQ to warm or cold a sound similar to a photo. To enhance the atmosphere in the scene relevant to what the sound designer wants to convey. In my clip for A Quiet Place the room tone initially in the pharmacy I’ve recorded and it had a lot of hiss. I need to EQ that out, as well as the lower frequencies to rid of the rumble. I want to also use the EQ and pitching as explained to create a nasty atmosphere and optionally try the pitching as well perhaps even creating harmonics. I think this really helps as I keep having this dilemma of trying to replicate the scene to as much realism as possible. But then realising this isn’t at least the idea for this film. It’s not real, so we want to emphasise and create specific effects and intentions with out sound, and possibly how can we improve on what we’ve recorded to emphasise our decisions.
