    Think about story tellingā€¦

    by
    Stories are a great thing on there own, but nothing and I mean nothing beats a story with added sound effects.  Sound drives stories because it helps your imagination create a story.

    Audio Storytelling or Mind Control?

    by
    Audio effects are one of the most under-appreciated elements in film because it’s often used to support the visuals. Sound alone changes the tone of any setting and circumstance.

    Moon Reflection

    by
    The Moon Graffiti audio was very interesting. Even though there were no images I could use the sounds to create an image in my head. The sounds of this really brought the whole thing together.
