16th December 2010

just finished my work. Uploaded it to youtube so It will be easy to view. Managed to recreate the heartbeat sound and ambient hum, So now I only have one sampled track. It has a few faults but I am mostly satisfied with the outcome.

7th December 2010

Used sounds from Freesound. An ambient sound to punctuate the mood and a heartbeat sound for intensity. I think I could actually make those sounds myself. The third sound is a cello loop, it weould be beyond my presentr abilities to replicate that, so i'll leave it in.

2nd December 2010

Used a few music sounds from Freesound worked great, It's good way to get music but It's a shame it not all my own work, must remember to reference material.

I found a website called Freesound project http://www.freesound.org/ . It provides free sounds, as long as it's not used for commercial purposes. I would prefer to use my own music but considering I can't play or compose this will be my backup plan.

Thinking about music. I don't have a background in writing or composing. found a site called virtual keyboard someone can type in whatever notes of chords they want and it plays them but there is a limited number of keyboard sounds.

I also found a site called list-of-chords, It's actally as it sounds. Tried typing the chords from 'list of chords' into the virtual keyboard and found it an easy way to play chords. Tried finding intense chords for the fight scene and tense chords for the walk up scene.

I found this a bit awkard since i would still have to place all the sounds together. This would require composing skills, something which I've had no experience before. i may have to look for an alternate solution.

20th November 2010

recording second set of sounds. A clicking sound for a train (I will look through my household objects). I'm going to need some stabbing sounds so I'm going to stab some fruit. Then finally I'm going to record some voice acting. There isn't too much dialogue in the clip so I might be able to use my own voice. I'm planning to use some effects to make it sound more dramatic.

The punches I recorded last time sound a little sound so I will try to record some harder punches.

18th November 2010

Booked out recording kit again to record the remaining sounds.
