Editing Spotlight - Audio Envelopes

During the filning process we need to record a lot of speech however, we didnt have the funds nor a compatible camera to be able to connect a microphone or external boom mic to increase the sound quality and sensitivity.This caused wind and other backgorund noise to be picked up during the filming of our production.  In order to fix this issue we used the Audio Enveloping feature which is built in to Final Cut Pro X and masked it with a soundscape on top. This is allows you to control the height and therefore the volume of the sound in each shot. In the Print Screen you can see that some of the audio tracks have peaks which show when the audio is louder or the other way round, quieter.
