Extraneous Effect
Display Text Extraneous Effect
Description "Extraneous Effect" is any sound effect (e.g. knock, step, gunshot, environmental ambience, etc.) present where it is not creatively intended and appears out of place within the context of the scene.
Impact Extraneous effects negatively impact the member experience, as they may indicate misleading/false story cues and/or obscure the intended plot pertinent dialogue/music/effects within a scene.
Severity Assessment Guidance
FYI Effect cannot be directly attributed to on-screen action and may or may not be reasonably attributed to off-screen action but generally does not obscure any plot pertinent dialogue/music/effects or distract from the creative intent of the story.
Issue Effect is clearly not creatively intended based on contextual cues and distracts from or obscures plot pertinent dialogue/music/effects.
Blocker N/A
Solutions
How to Prevent Keep temp tracks completely separate from final tracks, and lock audio tracks that are not being worked on in order to avoid cross contaminating tracks. Review audio against picture to check for out of place or duplicated elements.
How to Fix Extraneous effect must be removed and/or replaced with the intended audio.
