For my second sound idea I truly did not know what to do. So in order to get ideas I went onto Roeshawn’s blog and I read that she searched up weird sounds on youtube so I decided to do the same. Doing so I stumbled upon a video that has to do with natures sounds and the “weird” sounds that nature makes. In this video what they are doing is basically picking up a couple of random items and throwing it on a frozen lake to see what kinds of sounds are made. I was actually really surprised and found this to be really interesting. Some of the things that they threw created sounds that you would never picture for the item that they used. For example they threw an ice block and created a pinging noise that echoed for a while. The sounds that were made were so interesting and keeping the previous video in mind all I could think of was how these sounds could be used to communicate so many different events and ideas. So many of the sounds made using branches could be used in movies for sound effects to many different scenes. I think that using nature’s sounds in a sound composition would be really interesting and unique because in my opinion nature can never make the same sounds twice as it is ever changing. Also many sounds in nature can sound like something completely different than what they really are. I want to try and see for myself what sounds I can make using nature or even just what sounds nature makes on its own without disruptions.
