REFLECTIONS

Experience
The prospect of audio dubbing seemed challenging when I received the briefing in the first week. However, with the subsequent reminder and guidance from Mr. Martin, my confidence in executing the task effectively has significantly increased, and I believe I can complete it well before the deadline. During the progression stage, I initially questioned the necessity of creating a spreadsheet and compiling all the links, as it seemed time-consuming and somewhat cumbersome. Yet, as I filled in the required sound effects, I realized that this process clarified the sequence for importing into Premiere Pro, making it easier to identify any missed sound effects.

Observations
Crafting this video demanded a full day's commitment, delving into a meticulous quest for fitting sound effects and their exact alignment with the visuals. Although faced with initial challenges in navigating unfamiliar settings, the satisfaction derived from the overall creative process was immense. I had to maintain constant attention to detail, ensuring the seamless integration of every element.

Findings
Upon concluding the demanding editing phase, a profound sense of accomplishment enveloped me. I witnessed the remarkable metamorphosis of a previously silent video into a captivating auditory experience, achieved through the incorporation of carefully chosen sound effects.
