a VERY short film for a assignment in my recording class

Behold Blue Pullman.

The teacher gave us the film clip with no sound and said.........add sound. no real direction other than that.

I think I might make it into a movie trailer.

in a land where the fate of all man kind lies on the sholuders of one man, on a train.

Around every corner, treachery, villainy, and debauchery

in the deadly struggle to survive

Snakes on a Train

can anyone do the IN A LAND WHERE movie trailer voice and wanna help on my project?

That's really good. I did a module on sound design a good while back and I really enjoyed it.

Loads of syncing up, and a lot of it subtle enough too. That crackling sound in the heavier bit in the second half sounds nicely like a train shuffling too. Is that intentional?

thanks. it was tons of fun to work on, and fall term I'm taking a full film scoring class. Should be lots of fun.

I was going for as train like as I could without the obvious train beat for the 2nd half. All those guitars are me. the last bit is the perfect combination of vintage big miff, vintage maestro fuzz tone and dwarfcraft Shiva. I also found a bunch of train sound MP3s online that I looped through the whole clip. its hard to pick it out but feels missing without.

TITS! How did you get them horns?

I think this is the best endorsement you can give to good sound design. It ought not to interfere or rub the viewer's face in the techniques, but it immeasurably enhances the clip.

I had to really scour the web to find the right train sound for free. I ended up using clips from some train nerd sight, haha

excellent coyote. It reminds me of my sound course I had to do a similar assignment with sceens from the file The Snowman. But this was pre digital days and we had to do it on old revox tape machines, china graph pencils, razor blades and cutting blocks. It was one of my favourite assignments of the course.

DAM..... when men were men

Fuzz love! Great work, man.

I'd so love to be in your class. I have been stuck doing pop for so long with no output for such spontaneous creativity required for sound design, I'd probably explode before finishing a project.
