Audio Questions

1. What ranges of frequencies are detectable to the human ear?
20Hz(lowest pitch)-20kHz(highest pitch)

2. Define Audio
It is of sound or the reproduction of sound.

3. Audio production involves what four elements of audio?
It involves the production, recording, manipulation, and reproduction of sound.

4. List 10 careers in audio and list a local company for six of the career field
· Studio Sound Engineer
· Live Sound Engineer
· Musician
· Music Producer
· DJ
· Radio Technician
· Film/Television Sound Recordist
· Field Sound Engineer
· Audio EditorPost- Production Audio Creator

5. List three careers that need to have an understanding of audio production concepts
Animator, Film Maker, and Cartoonist

6. A person rings a bell and another person hears the sound. Draw a diagram (in your composition book) of how this sound is created, transmitted, and received by a human

7. What is a waveform
The form of the wave.

8. Is sound two dimensional or three dimensional?
Three dimensional

9. How do variations in sound pressure correlate to a waveform diagram?
Air molecules move in a “wavelike” form and make its way to the human ear the same way.

10. Illustrate (in your composition book) the difference between wavelength, amplitude, and frequency.

11. Diagram (in your composition book) in phase, 180deg out of phase, and different wave and how they interact.

12. Define transducer
A device which converts energy from one form into another.

13. Define amplifier
A device which takes a signal and increases its power.

14. Define signal processor
Devices and software which allow the manipulation of the signal in various ways.

15. Diagram (in your composition book) the 3 part model as described in the article.

Castle texture



I learned how to make textures to my model by using the material library. As you can see I used the chrome feature and also the dark metal gold. I had to ungroup a couple things but the material library is a good way to spice up a model.

My Castle Pics




Well i've honestly learned a lot about 3D modeling. One thing that I found to be very important though was copying predrawn images and grouping. Not grouping and having to move each object piece by piece is way to time consuming. My biggest challenge in IMD so far I would have to say is making the angles for my camera views and creating the stairs model. If I did this castle model again I would add more texture to it for one, but I would group and copy EVERYTHING! My research sketch was very helpful though. It acted as an organized guide for me to just replicate onto the computer.

My first 3D assignments











This is basicly me in the beginner stage of 3D studio max. I learned how to rotate, expand and bend images in the process. I also learned how to create illusions based on the point of view.
