Features: This book is a pioneering work in the field of audio recording. It is the first professional textbook specifically written for higher education institutions' film and television audio recording programs. The book is divided into six chapters, providing a detailed discussion of the fundamental properties of sound—spatial and temporal characteristics. It explains the acoustic propagation patterns in different spaces and elaborates on how the spatial position of sound changes over time, describing the dynamic process. The book also discusses the significant impact of this dynamic process on the formation of human aesthetic experience. It analyzes and explores the sound effects—such as environmental effects and spatial (perspective) effects—created by this dynamic process, as well as the methods to achieve such effects, thereby transforming sound into a "creative art." The book primarily focuses on the control of acoustic conditions in audio recording spaces and the creation of spatial sound effects. Its purpose is to gain an in-depth understanding of how the acoustic conditions of spatial environments affect sound source signals, leading to a profound appreciation of the spatial characteristics of sound. This book serves as a textbook for higher education institutions' audio recording programs and can also be referenced by teaching staff and students in other audio-related disciplines.
