Hofstra Drama 20 – Sound for the Theatre

3/29/24 – 10:10 PM – My dorm room

Sounds farthest away from me: My friends talking in the other room, cars driving by, someone talking loudly outside

Sounds at a medium range from me: My fan, a door opening and closing in the other room

Sounds closest to me: The podcast I’m listening to, my keyboard clacking, my bracelets jangling

Sound level and activity: the sound level and activity are both low – my fan and podcast are on a lower volume, everything else is in the background. Also, everyone is winding down for the day, so there isn’t as much movement and activity within my dorm.

One word description: Chill

Three sounds essential to the sound environment: The podcast, my fan, my bracelets
