Initial Ideas


I am currently starting my third year at SMU and the major project has finally arrived!!! I thought I was prepared for it, but it seems I’m not...  haha.  As part of the project process, I have been asked to keep a blog of my progress throughout the project. I’ve never kept a blog before, but thinking about it, keeping one can only help when it comes to the write up.
My idea at the moment is to do Foley work and probably write the music score to a film excerpt, not sure what film though.  I’m 95% sure this is what I’m going to do, but I haven’t discussed anything with the lecturers yet.  Another idea was to record an album of some sort, so that’s still in the pipeline.  I was also thinking of creating original horror sounds, nothing gory, just atmospheric, sort of SFX.  Other interests were near-field studio Monitor testing and a similar idea with compressors, but I haven’t really got access to a wide enough range. 
So I’m booked in to see Gareth Jones next Thursday (3rd) to discuss these ideas with him.  I’m hoping something will be finalised then so I’ll know where to focus my efforts.
For the time being I have done some research on Foley work and film scores (Links posted below)
