Sound design breakdown

Brink This piece of sound design was created in about 12 hours, all the foley, ambience, shell impacts, dialogue, body impacts and a few of the layers of debris were recorded by myself both in the field and in the studio. The weapon firing and explosion sounds are from soundsnap.com but have been edited and processed. The drones and tones were created in Kontakt and Reaktor using a combination of my own patches and Native Instruments bundled instruments.  

Trex Roar The Trex vocal is made up of several animals, the grunts and hisses at the start of the clip are made from elephant and alligator samples. The roar is made from an initial pitched and layered roar from an elephant, tiger and lion cross faded into some elephant and lion growls. To give these more bass I also layered in a plant pot being dragged under the animal sounds, this is heavily pitched down and eq’ed to remove any trace of the gritty sound.  The roar also contains a pass by from a fighter jet, this isn’t really audible but when added enhances the initial power of the roar.

Lukewarm Media Web Intro This piece of sound design was put together in about an hour and a half. I had not seen the video beforehand and had no time to go field recording so only about half the sounds used are my own. The other half was obtained from libraries and soundsnap.com and were quickly edited and processed.  The breathing was done with my own breath straight to the video.

The Saboteur This short clip taken from The Saboteur was created in about six hours including the recording time about three quarters of the sounds in the clip are my own. The rain, thunder and fire at the start of the clip are library samples and the rest of the sounds are my own.
