My assignment was to get a clip from YouTube ( Tom & Jerry ) and then take the SFX’s from the clip and then decipher the sounds effects and then add your own recorded sounds and some off the internet; I used a really helpful website called www.SFXNOW.com and www.SFX.com and www.google .com and searched free sound effects.
I personally thought my 2 minutes of recreated sound effects for Tom & Jerry video works really well. There all in sync which gives a running flow to the video.
I had to recreated eating effects shouting, squeaking and blow off effects , I thought this assignment was really good because your trying to create a new sounds to fit into another video and when you see the final piece its really satisfying. I used a lot of sounds from the internet and half recorded myself, I used adobe to import all my SFX’s and the video.
They way i recorded my own sounds was using Garage Band on my Mac Pro and also using a Sony Voice recorder, i thought they both worked really well because you could be a quite room and the quality of the sound is really good.
I was really please with my video and would love to do the assignment again but on another video. If I had the chance to do this again I would use more unique effects to make the video look more entertaining and enjoyable to watch.
