FOLEY STUDIO:
Firstly, our tutor introduced us to the Foley studio in previous weeks to give examples and ideas of how to construct unusual, but realistic sounds. We were taught how to use the proper equipment but also how to do a quick and easy 'DIY' set up, which worked just as well as the actual way of recording in the studio. Giving us all a go at attempting to record, we built up enough confidence to do it in our groups in our free time.
Going to the Foley studio to create different sounds was interesting and really helped us explore the different effects and sounds we could make. For example, in my chosen clip there is a part where a fox and mouse slide across some ice, therefore I thought that I could go and get sounds from the ice rink near by. Only to realise I can produce it in the studio! All I had to use was a stone scraping against the wooden floor and it was as easy as that.
As a team we managed to get all of our sounds recorded and saved in one evening. This was extremely difficult as we had all chosen very different clips which needed all new and different sounds. I had to get the sounds of birds flapping their wings, whereas my classmates had to get sounds of someone running and on a skateboard. (To find out how I created my own sounds, go to blog post titled 'Week 8').
When I got back to the edit suite I named and went through the clips I had to make sure they were crisp and clear.
