Monster Trucks ProjectYou have been hired as an audio editor for Monster Trucks Incorporated. They want you to edit a commercial for the upcoming tour. In this project, you will learn how to add special effects to the tracks of audio in Audition, as well as further incorporate sound effects and background music to help your radio advertisements sound appealing and persuasive. Your client is Dorton Arena in Raleigh, NC. They are hosting a monster truck rally and Sesame Street wrestling match (fun for adults and children!). You have been given a raw recording of the commercial, a voice-over from Elmo talking trash to Big Bird, and a sound effect or two. You have also been provided with the final script of the commercial.
Your job is to cut and splice the original audio recording to match the script, then add in some excerpts from Elmo's voice-over. This time, every individual clip that you splice needs to be on its own track in Audition. You will use the software to add special effects like track panning, echo, reverb, and others. Finally, you will incorporate sound effects and background music to help persuade your audience to attend the monster truck rally and Sesame Street wrestling tournament. As you work, save your project as an Audition project file (.SESX) and name it last name +first initial + monster. When you are finished, export it using Export>Multitrack Mixdown>Entire Session and choose the .MP3 encoder and name the output file the same name (ex: pettywmonster.MP3). Submit the .MP3 file using the form below. Don't forget to review the rubric to make sure you are meeting all of the project requirements!
