What’s up, blog!
Let’s talk about sound editing, because wow… it is WAY harder than I thought. One of the biggest issues we ran into was that some of the diegetic sounds (like footsteps, breathing, and the sound of the gym equipment) weren’t loud enough in the original footage. Since these sounds are super important for making the scenes feel realistic, we had to recreate them using foley sound.
At first, I thought this would be easy, but syncing the new sounds with the footage was a nightmare. We had to record things like the squeak of Gianna’s shoes, the sound of her hands gripping the bar, and even the chalk dusting off her palms. Every little detail matters, and it took forever to get it to match perfectly.
We also started working on the background music, and that was another challenge. We needed to make sure the music added to the mood without overpowering the dialogue and other important sounds. Finding the right volume balance took a lot of trial and error, but I think we’re finally getting there.
Even though sound editing is frustrating, I’m realizing how much it actually improves the film. It might be one of the hardest parts of post-production, but once we get it right, I know it’s going to make a huge difference.
