Trey's Sound Effects

 TREY'S SOUND EFFECTS

We decided to get most of our sound effects from a sound base provided by Mrs. Stoklosa, and we recorded dialogue from a booth. I recorded raw audio of my bike moving as well as the sound of the brakes at my house.

I layered multiple tracks under the Basketball scene to capture the ambiance of the park, as with the bully scene as well. For the majority of the opening, I decided to leave out sound effects as it would drive attention away from the V.O. 

To properly sound bridge between scenes, I used a constant gain effect to make the transition sound subtle and smooth. If I left it out, the audience would hear a quiet "pop" noise, which could be immersion-breaking. Audio is everything when it comes to film. If the film has bad audio, then the audience will not be engaged.

If you thought that was cool, just wait until you see my comic book effects! Stay tuned for the next episode of Trey's Post-Production Z Kai! (Much better name if I say so myself)
