Our Business

This project has enabled us to create soundtracks that show case our ability in the field of sound design, foley and editing. A significant amount of people within the media industry go into freelance work, so it was important to understand how these creatives work. This is relevant to my fourth learning outcome. The premise of our ‘business’ is as follows. Myself and Ben have established a post production sound design company, that creates bespoke soundtracks for clients. The website Ben creates will showcase the works we have completed in our project, with the aim of attracting potential clients. We are fully aware of the difficulties faced in starting your own business, particularly as the majority of businesses fail within the first year of operating. However, research from freelance lectures suggest that contacts are the best way to keep contacts with people you work with, these contacts currently focus on people in and around the University.
