Crew Project, Post 3

I have gathered some more sounds for Fable, though I am hesitant about the Flintlock Rifle noise that Jake seems to prefer, he told me to record some from video games, but I am aware that might be considered theft, and I don't want to be part in that really. However, he is the boss, and I have done so, I took one of the sounds from a game, several others from my archives. It is of course his final decision, and I will admit the game sound IS the better one of the set, but we shall see how it goes. I am enjoying gathering these sounds, and can only hope that the group will think them suitable.

No email from Sean about Jeffrey Chide yet, he must be busy this week, I shall wait a while before I bother him about it, in the meantime I shall carry on collecting sounds for him.

No contact from the stop motion project still, I shall have to start contacting them if I hear nothing soon.

The Offending Flintlock Sounds in a single track: To a pointless doodle I did of a gun some time ago. I realise this is not the right sort of gun, but I had to put SOMETHING in the video.

Crew Project, Post 2

Well, my sound work on Fable continues to go well, I am slowly gathering some of the sounds they asked for... stabbing, squelching, sword noise... that variety of thing. I shall try uploading some of the sound files at the end of the post.

Jeffrey Chide also goes well, I recorded the scratch track narration of the animation this week, and I shall upload that also, if Blogger allows me to upload sound files. I will also put in some of the other sounds that I have been recording for the project. Sean has promised to email me soon with opinions and changes, and obviously about the sounds still required, of which there are plenty.


Okay, so it turns out that Blogger doesn't allow Audio files, I will work on a solution to this and fill them in as I find one.

EDIT:
Okay, I found a Solution, an annoying one, but a solution nonetheless.

So without Further fuss... here is the Scratch track narration of Jeffrey Chide, Narrated by Sean Rothwell, Recorded by me, with a pointless video image of a guinea pig to trick blogger into thinking this is a video :D



Some sounds I have so far done for J-Chide with a pointless picture of a rainbow.






Some sounds so far from Fable, with a pointless picture of a really pretty tree that I took a long time ago.

Crew Project, Post 1

Now I have properly met and spoken with both of the groups that I am doing sound for. They both have very interesting concepts, and at this time, seem to have enthusiastic, active, friendly groups. Inbetween: A fable has given me a few basic sounds that I am to start getting for them, which is certainly something good to get to as a starting point.

The Story of Jeffrey Chide seems to be a highly unusual, but amusing concept, which I am already interested in. I have been provided with a full, detailed sound list, sorted by scene, and I am delighted that it is all so well organised so early on! I hope to start recording sounds very soon! ^_^

Still no word from the stop-motion project, I assume they must still be in early planning and therefore not ready for the prop-building.
