Intro to Spatial Audio with Spatial Workstation Workshop

AR VR Journalism Lab

In virtual reality, what the audience hears can be even more important than what they see. In this workshop taught by spatial audio sound design expert Marta Gospodarek you'll learn best practices for VR audio and work hands-on with <A HREF="https://facebook360.fb.com/spatial-workstation/" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Spatial Workstation</A> to mix spatial audio. Spatial audio can immerse your audience in the scene, drive the narrative and guide the viewer in 360 and virtual reality experiences.
Participants will: -Go through spatial audio workflows from audio sync to adding music, mixing, EQ and compression so that the audio is ready to send to Premiere or Unity; -Try spatial audio experiences; -See demos of audio capture setups for spatial sound;  -Get a primer on spatial hearing, binaural technology and ambisonics technology.
