Sound design is an essential element in video editing and content creation, and is normally used to elevate and transform a good piece of content into an extraordinary experience. Sound design creates an immersive environment that captivates the audience, making the content more engaging and impactful.
Good audio has the power to elevate subpar visuals, but on the flip side even the most stunning visuals can fall flat if paired with poor audio. Bad audio is distracting and causes the viewer to disengage.
Each piece of content is unique, but some of the more common elements of sound design include:
- Ambient Sounds
- Music
- Sound Effects
- Dialogue or Voiceover
- Foley (everyday sounds)
