REFLECTION

Working on an audio editing project with Adobe Audition and Premiere Pro has been an enjoyable and interesting experience. I find it truly captivating, often losing track of time while working on this assignment. Through this project, I've learned the art of audio editing, including transforming a male voice into a female voice, which I found particularly fascinating. Additionally, I gained insights into how to synchronize audio with the scenes depicted in the video. Overall, this project has enhanced my technical skills, deepened my understanding of audio editing, and heightened my appreciation for the meticulous attention to detail required in audio post-production.
