After record all the dialogues with my phone, I import it to Adobe Premiere Pro.

Waymond's voice was deeper, so I decided to change my voice using Pitch Shifter and decrease the semi tones.

Reflection

Audio Dubbing Reflection: Through this exercise, I know how to edit the audio. I am having fun in this exercise. In videos without sound, we need to imagine the sound ourselves and then I dub it in to make the whole video reasonable. I think the most interesting thing is dubbing the dialogues myself. I can feel the emotions of the characters while dubbing. Although there are some differences between my own voice and the original voice in the video, I don’t think it’s too strange overall?

Sound Shaping Reflection: This exercise is more interesting for me because I could record my own voice and transform it into various effects, like the sound of talking in a bathroom or make my voice to an alien voice. Since I didn't know how to transform my voice to an alien voice, I learn it from Youtube.This made me learn something new. I found that with simple techniques, even my voice could be molded into a completely different sound.
