The two texts I used when researching Post-Production Sound were The Foley Grail (Theme Ament, 2014) and The Sound Effects Bible (Viers, 2008). I’ll write a little about the information I got out of both of them.
In this guest lecture, we learnt about opportunities available to us after we graduate, and were also quizzed about our knowledge on a variety of topics.
During the first semester Sam, Rob and I were contacted by David on behalf of Matt North, an Audio Production graduate who wanted some assistance with recording some foley and also sourcing ambiences for a film he was mixing call Callback. We wholeheartedly agreed, and Matt sent us the video file, suggesting that we work through chronologically and sent him OMF files at various stages, essentially like working on reels when working with physical film.
This post is about the three days Sam Jenkins, Rob Wynne and I spent recording Location Sound for Cognition. We did document some of the process with pictures, and were able to experiment to some extent with boundary mics and plant mics.
This blog post will be a short analysis of another location the media students have found.
