Steps and Establishment

 Greetings, one and all! So… this week was somewhat less picture-worthy, as it was almost exclusively syncing up Foley, and building soundscapes. That said, it has had its fun moments, like using the sound of dirt and something squelching in a bowl to get a good stab sound. Or speeding up the sound of dirt and gravel falling to make an icy noise.

However, the thing I’ve spent the most time on was replacing footsteps. This is because the material the sets are made of rarely matches what they’re supposed to be made of. So, creaky wooden stairs must become solid stone, and so on.


On Sunday we did a quick pickup shoot to flesh out an establishing shot. Sadly we got no pictures, as everyone involved was occupied, so we’ll have to settle for a screenshot.


As of this writing, the new footage has been integrated into the shot, and is awaiting final color correction. We add that to a couple other bits of effects work, like an ice blast or some simple rotoscoping, and we’ve just about rounded things out.

Well, that’s about all for this week. Until next time!
