Audiostory
The Elves & The Shoemaker
This project was the creation of a compelling narrative version of the story The Elves and the Shoemaker, by the Brothers Grimm. For this project I did the script editing, voice acting, foley curation & assembly, the draft and final versions of the story. Audio production was completed using GarageBand, and the results are depicted in the image below. Key elements include the use of panning, ducking and multiple track overlays to create a unique soundscape. Using a wide variety of EQ settings helped to create a range of differences in tone and pitch for character voices.
Objective: Create an engaging audio story using an existing Grimm's fairytale.
Audience: Children ages five and up, and adults of all ages.
My Role: Script Editor, Voice Actor, Sound Designer, Researcher, Producer, Publisher
