Audio Editing 1 - All Alone

(Audio created based on this picture)

Audio Link: All Alone
Application: Reaper, ShurePlus Motiv Audio
Equipment: HUAWEI P40 Pro+

Description:
The story is about a tired man getting off at a bus stop after work. He sat on a chair at the bus stop, trying to cheer himself up. But he was woken up by a text message from his girlfriend, who had been having trouble getting along. He chose to text friendly with his girlfriend at first. But all his girlfriend does is fight.

He wanted to be quiet and alone on such a quiet night. But she kept sending him new messages. This made him restless. He had no choice but to shut down. Then he remembered how much he had left undone on his schedule today. He pulled out his schedule. He looked at it for a while then just rubbed it up. It wasn't long before he opened the crumpled paper again.

Finally he broke down and tore up the paper and threw it on the ground. He pulled out a can of soda and savoured the silence with the bubbling soda sound.

Inspiration:
When I thought up this story, I was in the final year of my university. I was always worried about my life after university. There are a lot of things bothering me in my normal life. Sometimes my girlfriend fights over things with me. All of these things will make me down. So I want to create an audio to imitate what I’m worried about in the future. If I encounter things like this, all I want to do is just be alone on a quiet night. In this hurried society, sometimes simple things can bring us a lot of happiness.

Audio Editing 2 - Construction Site

Description:
This picture was took on a street when I travel to Yunnan for holiday. The construction site sound annoyed me all the day until dusk. After that I feel a deep quiet. Then I realized that someone is working while someone is chilling. This gives me a huge sense of contrast. I want to make an audio as a souvenir that may remind me of this feeling. So I recorded some audio from the street and used some Foley technic to imitate some particular sound.
