What we have done:
This week, we developed more on the draft one. We started to write while thinking about how and when we will use sound effects and background music. Space is created for sound effects. Considering the feedbacks we got, more informational details of the North Atlantic right whale are added. For example, the three different sounds they make and the meaning behind it:
Like humans, these whales are social animals. The upcall is used by whales to announce their presence. Gunshots are used by males to threaten other males, and find mates. And the scream is used by females to build and maintain groups.
We also decided to map the project in Lujiazui and write the script based on that. Given that neither of us has been there before, street names and landmarks are not added yet will be added very soon. And we still need to add an ending.
Maike did a demo record of the intro part so that audience could understand more about the tone and the general feeling of this project.
Next Step:
Both Maike and I will go to the place. Given that we can not find a time that work for both of us. Maike will go on Wednesday to do some recordings and decide on the exact route of the project. I will go on Thursday with her recording to see what works and what doesn’t and have the rest of raw recordings we need finished.
On the weekend, Maike will do the recording of voice over and I will work on the editing. We will have the draft audio done before Monday.
