Audio Information

Audio Information can include narration, dialogue, voice over, music, sound effects, and natural sounds. Heba advises to consider the recording volume of sounds when integrating them with other media. Sounds that are either too loud or too soft can be distracting, and take away from the rest of the information presented. If you are using music, remember that contemporary music may become outdated in a fairly short period of time. Consider the life span the project will have, and select music accordingly. The cost of using copyrighted materials is also a factor in developing the audio budget (133).
