Video and Sound Production Project 1

Week 1 

For the first class for sound production, Mr.Rafiz gave us a lecture on the topic of Sound Fundamental. He even introduced the nature of sound to us which is very scientific. In this section, we also learned about human hearing range (pitch /frequency).


There is a second video for the tutorial section which has been recorded by Mr.Rafiz during the class. In this section, Mr.Rafiz guide us and teach us the basic of Adobe Audition. Adobe Audition is a software that allows us to do sound editing with more function.


After the tutorial section, we were given an exercise. For this exercise, we were asked to explore the sound. Mr.Rafiz mentioned that there is no true or false for sound production, we learn through exploring. We were given a zip file with 6 different sound and we needed to explore them through Adobe Audition. Below is my attempt as this is also my first time playing around with sound.

Fg.1.0 Parametric Equalizer adjustment of eq-1

Fg.1.1 Parametric Equalizer adjustment of eq-2
Fg.1.2 Parametric Equalizer adjustment of eq-3

Fg.1.3 Parametric Equalizer adjustment of eq-4
Fg.1.4 Parametric Equalizer adjustment of eq-5

Fg.1.4 Parametric Equalizer adjustment of eq-6
Before the class ended, Mr.Rafiz also suggest us to get a good quality headphone as it will function better. The sound that we can hear from the good quality headphones is different from the cheap one. Mr.Rafiz also provided us a range of recommended headphones in Google Classroom.


Week 2

In this week's lecture, Mr.Rafiz start the class by recapping us about frequencies and equalizers. Then, he continues the class with a demo of how to do sound shaping. Below is my attempt for sound shaping exercise:

Voice on Phone call


Fg.1.5 Voice on phone call


Voice from Closet/Room 


Fg.1.6 Voice from closet/room
Voice of walkie talkie

Fg. 1.7 Voice of walkie talkie

Voice of speaker in stadium


Fg.1.8 Voice of speaker in stadium

 Voice in bathroom


Fg.1.9 Voice in bathroom

Week 3
Due to public holiday, there is no class for today. But, Mr. Razif did prepare a lecture and a tutorial video for us. In the lecture video, we learn about the 6 basics of sound design which are:

1. Layering
2. Time stretching
3. Time compression
4. Pitch shifting
5. Reversing
6. Mouth it

 Lecture slide provided:


In the lecture video, Mr. Razif introduce us about what is layering, time-stretching, time compression, pitch shifting, reversing, and mouth it. He also showed us a bit about how to do all of that in Audition. More details will be shown in the tutorial video.

 Lecture video recorded by Mr. Razif:



In the tutorial video, Mr.Razif show us the steps to do layering, time-stretching, time compression, pitch shifting, reversing, and mouth it by using the multitrack, parametric equalizer, mixer, reverb, and hard limiter on Audition.

Tutorial video recorded by Mr.Razif:




In another video which is the last video, Mr.Razif shows us how to export multitrack into one file. We should export as MP3 instead of WAV format because MP3 is compressed so the file size will be smaller and make file-sharing services easier. ( Now, we need to upload it on Google drive and post on our blog, which means we need to export as MP3.)



Below is my attempt for the exercise:

1. Variation of punch sound effect (from one punch sound file)


Fg.2.0 Progression of  Variation of punch sound effect

2. Voice of alien or monster (from one voice recording)



Fg.2.1 Progression of Alien Voice on Audition

3. Deep rich explosion (from one Lo Fi Explosion sound)

Fg.2.2 Progression of  Deep rich explosion

Major Project

  Yeoh Wen Jun ( 0334234 ) Major Project INSTRUCTION Week 1 For the first class of Major Project, we were given a short brief by Mr. Asrizal in the class. It was the first time we can all sit in class together after so long since the pandemic. We went through the MIB and we were told that we can conduct the project in 3 ways. The first is to continue with our dissertation topic, the second is to get a client and the last is to make something with the 17 Sustainable Development Goals.  After the instruction, Mr.Asrizal showed us some seniors' work to give us some ideas. Someone designed a font for Pasar Raya, someone illustrated her own Tarot card, and someone designed a series of collateral. We will need to propose our ideas to Mr. Asrizal in the next class and we started to brainstorm our idea until the class ended. Week 2 This week, the class was separated according to the 4 specializations. The animation group started for the first and we propose our ideas to Mr. A...

Sonic Design Final Project

Yeoh Wen Jun ( 0334234 ) Sonic Design Final Project  INSTRUCTION Week 12 In the final project, it is different from what we did before. Before this, we normally use the free stocks sound effect to conduct our exercises. But this time we will need to record our own sound effects. We were given a variety of videos to choose from. Also, an audio storyboard was prepared by Mr.Razif. The reason to have an audio storyboard is that if we are going to record sound in a studio, we need to save time as it is not cheap. We need to get ready for all the materials and know what sound we need to create. Audio storyboard and video provided by Mr. Razif: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B4qFCRRLg21uaVVfNTFsMGsyMU0?resourcekey=0-aaijjah6ADp53WbCOfaCsg&usp=sharing Other than sound effects, we were required to create simple background music and some narration if needed. In this case, our classmate Avery Ong was invited to give us a talk about piano.    The tone for different...

Yeoh Wen Jun ( 0334234 ) Professional Development Week Introduction As this is our final semester and we will be graduating very soon, we were asked to learn different knowledge from the people working in the industry and make a report. Hence, we were assigned to take part in the Professional Development Week. Professional Development Week is on week 8 of this semester, and there are many types of workshops provided. In this case, we will need to attend at least 6 workshops which is a total of 6 learning hours. Some workshops were compulsory as it was selected by our Program Director but for the rest, we can choose for ourselves. Below are the workshops that I took part in: Tuesday, May 17 For me personally, I enjoyed the “Financial Literacy for Fresh Graduates" workshop by Mr. Fairuz Izman from MAYBANK the most. The way he presented was really interesting and made me feel like I want to listen more from him as he was sharing his own story as an example. From this workshop, I ...
