As the time gets closer to the deadline for our animation to be complete i thought i had better put a few notes up on what has been going on in the group. The modelling and hand drawn 2d animation have been taking place at the same time; with the 3d animation we are making the shots a bit longer than needed so that we can paraphrase what Winnie is saying and emphisize the speach with the visuals. In this way we can generate empathy for her situation and therfor fortify the narrative.
The weather has been kind to us today in the respectof foley; we needed the sound of a car going thruogh a wet road; a hard sound to get if the weather is fine, but today it is raining, so we got our noise. The sound of the clock ticking has come from an old metronome; which gives a very audiable clear tick; and this will enable us to duplicate it and dumb it down a bit in the wave-form editor (it only has one click per second and we are after tick AND the tock).
Other foley has represented its own problems; such as the stairs when i only live in a flat, (we tried the stairs all round the campus but the reverb was wrong on every attemp). We got over this by finding a creaky floor-board in my flat and having my son (Jake) creep over it inching forward all the time.
We have decided against the rain sound in favour of having stormy skys; this now gives the impression that it has just rained in the classic sunshine and showers (cornish fashion).
