Sound for Screen L2

Today we added a little more to our work on Logic Pro, but used a reverberator to add depth for example to certain sound FX, making it sound more realistic. This is extremely useful when two characters in the clip fall off the cliff and we wish to make their fall sound realistic and tense.

Key words:

Leitmotif -  Short musical passage or theme you associate to a character.

There are some familiar one's we all know of;

Harry Potter Hedwig's Theme 

Pirates of the Caribbean

Star Wars

What we also looked at today and thought about was Sound. How much do sound actually add to a film? We then watched a clip from the Disney film 'Up', both with and without sound.  The difference between both clips is insane. The added depth, emotion, feeling, understanding and pace that is added when a musical score is involved truly adds to the film. It really is true when they say the film is lost without sound.
