With an absolute lack of news postings on this news page I chastise myself!
Yikes, I can't believe that last post was so long ago. In my defense I've been very busy working on lots of great projects.
Along with the studio being busy we've also had a second Baby BOOM, so now we have 2 boys causing general havoc in the house :) (I told you I'd been busy)
My new website is a much more streamlined version of the old one and really reflects the direction and intention of the studio. Sound design and mixing for video is the majority of what I do and I absolutely love it - especially when I get to work with beautiful projects like this one...
Always a pleasure to work with Tim and Toby from Two Bearded Men - and in this video Tim Pierce has had some great success - Staff Picked on Vimeo and almost 60,00 views in the first 48 hours.
I created a lot of sound design for this vid but the goal was not to dazzle but to be realistic. Pretty much all of the snowboard carves and moves are done in post plus all the heli sounds and logo fx. The main point of the video is to get across Will's interpretation of life so any sound that stuck out as unreal or over the top just had to be tamed down so it didn't distract from the story and pictures.
The trailer, which you can see HERE has more of the sound design pushed higher in the mix.
Also key to the sound mix was to clean up the voice and make it nice and intimate plus get all the music levels right. Always a delicate balance!
I hope you enjoy.
