In other words, the text for the Audio Description version of
the movie? (If there is a movie of the book you want, of
course...)
A similar concept would be an audio-book that doesn't have
any descriptions of scenes, just the sounds involved (and
dialogue between characters, of course). So instead of
hearing the spoken words "a car drives past", you just hear a
car (if in stereo or even full 5.1, even more could be
done...). |
|
| |
Mrs Em, Mrs Eye, Mrs Ess, Ess, ... fuck it. |
|
| |
if it is a written book, are the sounds written as
you have shown here? Or do sounds come out of
the
book? I think there are many things that are
already like this. |
|
| |
The idea is inadequately explained, or nonexistent. |
|
| |
^ agreed, thought it was me.(fingers poking screen
on iPad) |
|
| |
Why isn't Grammarlly workking? |
|
| |
Okay, I get it not, The idea is to add text to books that indicate environmental ambience. Right? |
|
| |
This would be rather like reading the script for a finished
screen-play. |
|
| |
I've been watching short movies like Omoleto series or
DUST sci-fi that heavily rely on dialog but usually have
subtitles. |
|
| |
So basically when watching these movies you are also
reading the movie script, but then every now and then you
get a subtitle telling you stuff in parenthesis: (dramatic
music), or (squeeking door). |
|
| |
I was wondering what would happen if the classical
childrens stories or even novels would be written with some
extra information about the sounds in the background, and
something about the scenery and background that is not
shown in the pictures or described in the original text by
the author. |
|
| |
Here's the actual beginning of Huck Finn: |
|
| |
You don’t know about me without you have read a book by
the name of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer; but that ain’t
no matter. That book was made by Mr. Mark Twain, and he
told the truth, mainly. There was things which he
stretched, but mainly he told the truth. That is nothing. I
never seen anybody but lied one time or another, without it
was Aunt Polly, or the widow, or maybe Mary. Aunt Polly—
Tom’s Aunt Polly, she is—and Mary, and the Widow Douglas
is all told about in that book, which is mostly a true book,
with some stretchers, as I said before. |
|
| |
Now the way that the book winds up is this: Tom and me
found the money that the robbers hid in the cave, and it
made us rich. |
|
| |
I just touch it up with some background music and
description of the boy's high pitched voice. |
|
| |
Distant fiddle practicing in the background. Cabin door
creeking open. Entering the kitchen the cat is startled and
jumps off the table. etc. Camera focuses on pickle jars. |
|
| |
[a1]; this is all written descriptions.
B- must try harder. |
|
| |
Well, the rest of us got it, so maybe this one just isn't for
you... |
|
| |
Authors - what do they know about how to pace a story? Who do
they think they are, anyway? |
|
| |
A fine offering that increases the complexity of all
books and is worthy of croissant accumulation. |
