Room Tone

Hi Storytellers! Happy Filmmaking Thursday

Ambient noise and room tone are something we all have to deal with when creating videos.

There are a lot of tips and tricks you can use to minimize annoying background noise but there are 3 things you need to know first.

1. Every single room has background noise. This is just something we all have to accept. Unfortunately, there is no magical noise-free room or set up that you should be using. Everything in a room creates vibrations and sound that can show up in your video.

2. Mics can help combat background noise. Microphones ensure that your voice is louder than the background noise surrounding you. Make sure you’re always using top quality mics and sound equipment no matter where you are.

3. Some noise issues can be fixed in editing, but don’t rely on that. With the right editing equipment, getting rid of ambient noise is not too difficult. But ambient noise can have the same frequency as our voices, making it impossible to get rid of that noise without also altering your own voice.
