Sound Design for Filmmaking - CINEMATIC VIDEO Tutorial

Sound Design for Filmmaking - CINEMATIC VIDEO Tutorial
It’s no secret that sound can drastically enhance the viewing experience but with so many tutorials about this topic already out there I wanted to focus on some of the areas that are not spoken about much like the creative approach & how to bring more life to your edits with sound.

🔥 DISCLAIMER: Although I personally teach Sound Design in this Tutorial I want to make it clear that I myself outsource most of my Projects to Industry Professionals. For lack of better judgement I failed to mention this in the Tutorial. The goal of the video is to help solo creators and hobbyists who do not have the budget or means to outsource their sound. Although all references are from my own projects, the majority of the Sound Design was NOT DONE by me and would like to give everyone the credit they deserve:

🔥 UPDATE ON MY COLOR GRADING COURSE:
My sincere apologies for the wait! It's taking so much longer than originally anticipated but one of the reasons for the delay is because of the recent release of Davinci Resolve 19. With some powerful new tools I want to incorporate & update it into the tutorials. I'm also having surgery on the 14th of May with a 2 week recovery time. That being said, the course will go LIVE at the very latest by the end of June.

Hello Jacques. I’ve truly been educated by your contents. You have a way of teaching what’s left out and unfocused on. Thank you for that. I’ve been anticipating your colour grading course ever since you first talked about it. Even signed up twice to be sure my name is on the list 😅. I’ve been wondering why the delay but now you’ve mentioned it, I wish you a successful surgery and quick recovery. Come back stronger💪🏽

Very Very Informative. I'm exploring Sound Designing these days (to add in my shoots). This is really helpful. I also want to know , can we use other dedicated software for animated filter effects (? Will it give more control and quality or production house use AE or Premium in final stage ?

[@jacques_crafford]

Thanks man, happy to hear you saw value in this! I'm not sure what the Pro's use but when I Sound Design myself I just use DaVinci Resolve but I feel like Premiere and AE can do the same and those filters are pretty universal!

Great video. But anybody else find the vocal track in this video have too much bass? Seems to punchy to me, and a little hard to hear.

[@jacques_crafford]

Thanks Roy! You're absolutely right my man. I only realised it after uploading unfortunately. I had the wrong filter on the vocal track when I exported. You'll hear the difference when I switch to the Musicbed AD because that track was done individually. I want to kick myself but hey that's how we learn!
