2005-02-28 11:11:01 ET I have decided that I don't want to be a sound designer. I think this decision is largely based on the fact that sound design has accually developed in the last ten years, into something that doesn't have any proper training for. Really, I have no idea what I am doing, There is no one who can tell me what I am doing, so therefore.. I don't think I like it. It's hard to fill a role that has no set requirements and rules nor a set lanuguage to that would help communication between the designer and director. Plus I stand in a place where I cannot say... "no that's not my Job" Or "That is a decision I am suppose to make." I feel at moments that I am merely a gofer for the director and the other half of the time I feel misinformed. There are some places I have been told about that are making real advances in teaching sound from the design aspect. Here I am seeing sound merely from the practicle side and slight peeks from an artistic side. There has been a faint promise of letting me do a lighting design next year. I really hope that happens. I feel alot more comfortable creating a world visually vs. autibly. |
