What you’ll learn
-
Record excellent location sound for film and video projects, and do a basic sound edit when you’re done recording. We teach you to record like the pros.
You’ve heard it said — in video and film, AUDIO is 70% of what you see. The sound you record on set can be the biggest obstacle to achieving truly professional results in your production. But it’s also one of the easiest things to get right!
This 2.5-hour course is ideal for beginners, excellent for intermediates who want to better understand the topics, and great for professionals as easy reference. It will be a program you come back to again and again.
Through detailed explanation, hands-on demonstration, and tongue-in-cheek sketch comedy and cinematic vignettes, Barry Green and Matt Gettemeier guide you through fundamentals for getting great sound in your film or television project.
They’ll get you on your way to professional-sounding audio, from two very simple but extremely important recording techniques which will solve nearly 80% of your audio problems, to choosing the correct microphone for your project and the right way to handle your microphones on set, to building a basic audio kit and using it properly, to choosing and managing locations to get the best possible sound recording environment.
Then join DVXUser post-production guru David Jimerson as he explains the basics of audio post production — what to do with your sound once you’ve recorded it, taking a real scene from raw cuts all the way to a complete sound mix.
With over two and a half hours of instruction, SOUND for Film and Television is your first step toward achieving great audio!

Aleksandra Baranova –
Great course that explains essential things in a funny and engaging way. Great tips and lots of useful information.
Wish a bit more time was dedicated to editing.
Katarzyna Paluch –
I gained or refreshed some solid knowledge, although the course is a bit out of date, especially in case of editing software, it is still a solid base for everyone who wants to start recording good sound.

I have a small contract producing videos for a local Church. I am enjoying the Udemy courses very much. I am learning a lot! Thank you!

I’m really learning a lot. I have learnt how to properly manage a location for shoot, how to use the right microphone in a particular location.
David Newman –
I have a little knowledge of sound engineering based on experience many years ago. I’m now at the stage of making some film of my own so need a really good, refresher education. This course is answering all my questions.

John Drake –
A good course, good examples and explanations, some of the tutorials cut out before the presenter finished speaking (probably as a result of some lightly iffy editing when transferring from DVD to the course material but otherwise good. Thank you.
Takspa Tsephel –
I am learning what I needed to learn..
Rob Froling –
I work at a commercial photo/video studio and have been starting to cycle in on more location video shoots. This video series has helped inform me about a number of things that happen on set that no one has had the time to tell me about so far. I now know much more of the ‘why’ things happen the way they do and will be a much better sound operator in the future. Thanks!

Because the videos make it easy to understand
