REFLECTIONS

Experience  
Working on the audio dubbing project was both challenging and fun. It was my first time using Adobe Audition, and although it felt unfamiliar at first, I enjoyed learning how to edit and transform my own voice. Recording multiple takes and syncing them with the video clips took time, but it was satisfying to see the final result. I also had fun experimenting with different effects to create unique voices and environments.

Observations 
I noticed how important sound is when it comes to setting the mood of a scene. Without the right audio, even a dramatic or intense moment can feel flat. Timing, pitch, and background noise all need to be adjusted carefully to make the audio feel natural. I also observed that layering effects can really change how a voice is perceived—one small tweak can make a big difference.

Findings 
This project helped me understand the basics of sound design and made me realize how much effort goes into audio production behind the scenes. I feel more confident using Adobe Audition now and I see how these skills are useful not only for this module but also for future projects. It also gave me a new appreciation for sound editors in film and animation.
