What Is the Purpose of Sound Editing?

Sound editing aims to amalgamate with a powerful story to enhance a film and bring out different emotions in viewers. It is a highly technical job that also requires enormous creativity!


People often overlap basic sound editing with sound mixing. Sound editing involves collecting and editing the sounds to superimpose the film. Artists collect sounds from natural or artificial sources for the film. Once they put the sound in the film, mixing ensures that the sound clips and recorded dialogue are seamless.
