Dear Readers,
Production has begun! I know you guys are excited, I know I am very excited, albeit a little nervous. Anyways let’s talk foley and sound effects. If you guys may recall from our first group meeting, my group mates recommended me to use foley sounds in the detective working scene. The sounds they told me to recreate ranged from camera shutters, case files being shuffled, paper moving around, etc. It’s time we use their suggestions and actually recreate these noises for our selves.
All the Audio was recorded in my closet. To maximize soundproof quality!
Camera Shutters!!!
In order to get the exact noise I wanted for the shutter of the camera. I used my camera and recorded the noise it made when it would take a picture. This process took a lot of trial and error, but I eventually got some audio clips that sounded like the sound I am trying to recreate! Digital Cameras are cool.
Case files being shuffled
In order to create the case files rustling/shuffled, I used plastic folders and placed papers and took sound bits of me removing papers, opening the folder, adding paper, closing the folder, etc.
