 SOUND DESIGN PROJECT     In this project, Me and 3 others were tasked to practice scoring on a short film that has no music. We had to randomly chose 1 of 3 short films and look for copyright free music that matched the tone of the chosen film. We were to align all of the music with the actions of the characters and upload the finished project to canvas.

We were to have atleast 4 foley sounds in this environment a the rest of the sounds were to be taken from a copyright free sound effects website. The scene: A dark night in the woods, walking with only a lantern as the light source, you hear echoing all throughout the forest and the sounds of dogs barking, the sound of leafs and branches crack under your feet. Foley Sounds: Stepping in grass, this effect was very easy to create as we had daniel walk in the grass for about 15 seconds. Breaking branches, this effect was also easy as we had to find a big pile of branches and step on them. Stepping on rocks, same as the others in difficulty as it isn’t very hard to find rocks near us. Dogs barking, this effect took the most work as one of us had to go outside at night time to pretend to be a stranger which eventually made the dogs barking loudly. Lantern moving,...
