For our the second audio project of our final year we had to choose and look at something which was to different to our first semester project which was a radio drama for Compass FM.
A friend of ours, Elizabeth Sawyer is an acoustic singer/songwriter who was looking to get some material recording in pursuit of getting some air time on the radio. With this in mind we had to set some targets of what we could aim for, speaking and discussing this with the artist of course, we discussed the number of songs we were to record, any extra arrangements on the recordings or additional instruments the could be layered over the top of it and what direction she would want to take it in.
We came up with the idea of putting instruments such as mandolin’s, ukulele’s, piano and clean electric guitars over the top of her acoustic guitar and vocals, which are the only two instruments she preforms with when live.
