Perfumes, colors and shapes trigger in us specific feelings and emotions. In the same way, sounds and lyrics, set together in a creative design to make a certain film dramatic and exciting, trigger in us specific feelings. This course is designed to provide participants with the fundamentals of sound design and engineering, as well as the theoretical background of the microphone technology. Participants will also be exposed to the studio sound signal flow as well as the sound identification and localization in different places and working stations. The trainees will also be introduced to the to sound mixing using the mixing console.
