What you'll learn

  • Professional Sound post production for your film, documentary, interview, clip...

Course content

1 section • 21 lectures • 5h 2m total length

  • Introduction1:45
  • Workflow18:20
  • Structure and overview of steps17:09

    Outline the post-production structure from Adobe Premiere to Audition and show two places to apply effects, focusing on frequencies with spectral display and a noise-reduction-first sequence.

  • Adobe Premiere to Adobe Audition17:44
  • Adobe Audition interface & Organising Tracks23:42
  • Spectral Frequency Display8:56
  • Male vs Female voice in Dialogue4:45
  • understanding frequency bands16:45
  • understanding frequencies9:13
  • Noise Reduction: Inconsistent Noise6:50
  • Noise Reduction: Consistent Noise - Method 124:17

    Master reducing consistent noise by planning quiet locations and using Adobe Audition's adaptive noise reduction for leftovers. Capture a noise print with a five-second window to minimize distortion.

  • Noise Reduction: Consistent Noise - Method 210:09
  • Noise Reduction: at what stage and how to automate11:07

    Apply noise reduction early, ideally before video editing, using Adobe Audition. Group files by location and automate adaptive noise reduction via batch processing, ensuring stereo 48 kHz, 24-bit delivery.

  • Compression: single-band34:11
  • Compression multi-band13:10

    Apply a four-band multiband compressor to voice recordings for film and documentary, targeting low, mid, and high frequencies with tuned threshold, ratio, and attack-release to preserve clarity and control noise.

  • EQ25:37
  • DeEsser8:55
  • To Normalise or NOT to Normalise21:36

    Apply normalization in Adobe Audition only as a last resort for film dialogue, aiming for a destination like minus 12 dB, and ensure you select the clip at waveform level.

  • Professional Mixing of MUSIC with vocals: avoid amateur mistakes16:56
  • Limiter8:40

    Apply a hard limiter on the master bus in Adobe Audition to prevent clipping and meet broadcast levels, typically minus 6 db rather than minus 0.1.

  • Export3:03

Requirements

  • None

Description

It's not enough to remove some noise and tweak the volume of music to match dialogue to call it Sound Post-production.

Do you know why most film and documentary submissions to festivals get rejected: AMATEUR SOUND!

50% of your film, documentary, interview, or clip is Sound, and at least 70% of emotions are in Sound.

It's a pity to spend so much time and money on the image of a project that will eventually be considered amateur of low quality, because of Sound.

You will learn professional Sound Post-production, even if you are a one man band filmmaker.

I'll teach you advanced techniques that are necessary, but I will simplify them for you. Techniques that will make you proud of your film project.

- I'll walk you through the workflow,

- how to take your Sound from Adobe premiere to Adobe Audition,

- the interface,

- how to organise your tracks,

- The differences between Male and female voices

- Spectral frequency display

- I will explain frequencies in detail

- noise reduction for inconsistent noise,

- 2 methods for consistent noise,

- and how to automate noise removal for several files

- Single-band compression,

- multi-band compression

- Limiter

- The magic of EQ

- DeEsser

- Normalisation

- and of course professional mixing of music with vocals

- before exporting your sound.

Let's make sound one of your strengths.
