Today we will be continuing on the Trailer Post Production project that we started on Tuesday. On Tuesday you picked a Trailer to work with and began the process of adding sound effects to match the actions in the trailer. The goal is to make it sound real. The audio should be a perfect match with the video.
Remember there are three parts to this project.
1. Add Sound FX
2. ADR- Replace the dialog (mics are available)
3. Add a music score using Reason as an instrument in Pro Tools
In order for you to properly edit the audio for your trailer you will need to use some of the handy tools in Pro Tools. Lets Review....
The Smart Tool
This is the combination of the Trimmer Tool, Selector Tool and the Grabber tool.
When Editing with the Smart tool there are several things that you can do. Watch how the mouse transforms depending on what part of the audio region you place the mouse.



There are also two other functions that you can use with the smart tool. They are Fade in/out and Cross Fade.
If you want the fade out at the end of your region place the mouse at the upper right or left corner begin to make your fade.
If you would like to cross fade, which is a way smoothly blend your regions together, put your mouse at the bottom right or left corner.
These tools should be very useful for you. Make sure that your audio is believable!
