Editing pt 2 and final animation

The final part of editing and cleaning up requires me to add in any audio that the animation needs. The sound effects and dialogue was all created by myself using Audacity to record the sounds. The dialogue was pretty straight forward however the sound effects were a little bit more difficult.

One of the sound effects that i used was ambient noise such as people talking and a vehicle passing by. These were recorded by using a Noise machine which is designed to help you sleep.
The other sound effect that i created were the laser pistol sounds and the can rebounding off of the wall. The pistol sound was created by saying 'Pew' into the microphone and then adding reverb and changing the pitch to be more high pitched. This was then slowed down and put into reverse for when the Main character first uses the pistol as the laser chargin up.

The other sound that i created was the can sound that was used when the can hit each wall. This sound was created by slamming an empty can down on my desk and then changing the pitch to be lower. This sound was also used in the scene where the main character knocks on a metal door.


To add a bit of atmosphere to the animation, i used 3 pieces of music throughout. These are Royalty free pieces of music created by Kevin MacLeod available on incompetech.com. These pieces of music were used to also fill in the empty spaces when there is not any dialogue as well as being an underlying sountrack in the scenes.

The three pieces of music used are called Hard Boiled, Spyglass and Volatile reaction.
