Today I have been playing around with my audio for my documentary. For a short cutaway at the start of my documentary, you can fairly hear the phone ringing in the shop. The idea of the shot is to show how busy the shop is and you can barely hear the sound of the ring. By adding the sound effect of a phone ringing would make it louder and also suggest to audiences that the shop is popular reinforcing the audio which states 'Chantilly Lace is one of the busiest shops in the Southend Borough'.
However, I did not like the options in iMovie as the telephone rings sounded very fact and not realistic and I wanted to create a sense of verisimilitude in my documentary. I found a video of a phone ringing on Youtube which is linked here:
This clip was more realistic and sounds better in my documentary. I simply downloaded the video, put it over the top of my clip and made the video transparent so you cannot see it.
