music editing.....hmmmmm

Well, if you do not like a certain part in a song or just wished that the chorus in a song will suit better in another song, what will you do? Continue to listen to the song? Do not listen to it at all? Imagine how the song will be without the part that you dislike? OR edit the song. Yes, now I can do it! As a matter of fact, all of us can do that. Why so? The answer is simple and straight forward. This week we learned and were required to edit audio. In other words, music. You are allowed to do whatever you want. For instance, you can increase the speed in a song, or delete the parts that you do not like, mix a few songs together to create a new song, and so on. I would say that this task was rather interesting. This is so as we can apply the skills that we have learned in the classroom where we think that we need to adapt or modify a song as it is not suitable for primary kids. Moreover, we can also apply what we have learned in our daily lives, as human beings who sometimes want to add a change in a particular song. I seriously think that this task is worthwhile and fun too. However, the process of editing the audio is not as simple as we all thought. It requires 100% attention as we have to really concentrate on what song to edit, where to edit, where to combine and so on. Frankly, it consumed a lot of time. I actually, spend two days to complete the work that was given. On top of that, there were other works from other subjects as well that needed immediate attention from us. Thus, I was basically fighting against the time to complete the task. I was looking at the time in the hope that I would not miss the date due. Thankfully, I managed to submit the audio editing at the time given. I must say that I was so relieved. Nevertheless, as I have mentioned earlier this task is worth the pain as it will be beneficial to us sooner or later and as the saying goes ‘No pain no gain’. You cannot gain anything without going through a certain degree of pain. I think that’s all for this week. I would like to define this week as a hectic week as we were all busy in one thing or the other.
