John downloaded some sample tracks from free sound, which
included: children laughing, music box music and various other noises. He used
these to work with whilst editing and selecting what was going to be put into our
final music track for our horror movie opening , editing it to fit our final
edit.
This is an example of one of the sound tracks downloaded
free form FreeSound. However, John didn’t use this one when composing our final
sound as we as a group found a more suitable and efficient version of children
laughing in a playground. The sound quality for the other track was far better
and clearer than this one and with less background noise.
John put the sounds together in Premiere Pro as he couldn’t
open or import them into GarageBand. Although we decided this worked better as
Premiere Pro enabled John to use audio effects and transitions, which he wouldn’t
have been able to use in GarageBand. For example:
These were the effects John used, ‘Pitch-shifter’, ‘Volume’
and ‘High-Pass’. All of these effects enabling him to make the girls laugh, towards
the end of the sound clip, sound more sinister and fit better for the purpose.
He made the pitch slightly higher and distorted the sound so that it is
unclear, fitting the genre of horror.
These are the tracks that John used to create the piece and
they are all free – and copyright free- from FreeSound. If John was to create another
example, he decided that he would use FreeSound again, as it has a large
variety of sound available to everyone.
Here is the example
