1. Date: 2/18/20 – Time: 12:40pm – Location: AMC 34th Street 14 (Auditorium 11)

2. Farthest away from me, I can hear the doors being opened and closed shut as people are entering the Auditorium, as well as those same people walking up the steps towards their seats.

3. In a medium range of sound, I hear a few people around me chatting with one another (before the start of the movie) and munching on their popcorn. I also hear the audio from the movie, since there are speakers placed throughout the auditorium

4. The closest sounds involve me munching on my popcorn and creating noise from having to forcefully remove my drink from the sticky cup holder. Moreover, I can hear the sipping noise while I am consuming my beverage.  There are inner thoughts in my head too, wondering how the movie will turn out.

5. The general sound level is loud, but not too loud, due to the nice volume level within the movie. Everyone in the Auditorium is sitting still for the most part, so there is not much sound activity happening other than the sound in the movie.

6. One word to describe the “sound environment” is “relaxing”.

7. Three sounds that are essential to the “sound environment” are the audio from the movie, small chatter as people react to things in the movie, and the munching of popcorn.
