Happy Days - Purple Planet Royalty Free Music

00:00 / 00:00

Chosen royalty free music for Scarecrow Clip

Scarecrow Clip

-Used the Tascam to capture sounds like pulling apart blue-tack to make a 'snap', shaking a pillowcase to make 'wings flapping', this caused a few problems due to it being to loud after being recorded too close to the mic, so they were re-done from farther away to stop the problem.

-Also used some sounds from online for an 'explosion' and general background ambience and music.

-Protools instrument plugins were used to generate the sound of the sun shining on the tractor ''ding', and to help add bass frequency to some of the other sounds.

Monster Clip

-Used the Tascam to record a deodorant can for a 'steam hiss', hitting a wrench off a pole for the 'axe on the pipes', flicking a lighter, and a dripping tap to give a feel for the damp room.

-Some sounds were gathered from online for alien voices, and tense background music.

-A smaller amount of protools instrument plugins were needed, they were used mainly to help emphasise the sound of the pipes breaking, due to the raw sound being too dead and hollow due to the type of pole being different than the one hit in the clip.
