SESSION 07 - MON 18.02.08

JAWS
Watching 'Making Of' DVD
- John Carter won Academy Award for sound on Jaws
- Sound of a dinosaur when the dead Jaws sinks through the water - from a dinosaur B-movie and used by Spielberg in Duel
- John Williams - two note signature that becomes associated with the arrival of the shark
-
Williams explains how synchronisation of the sound and the visual image creates impact

CATEGORISING SOUNDS
Using the cue sheet I categorised the sounds we need to record to ensure that we are more efficient and don't miss any recording opportunities.
Sounds have mostly been categorised according to similarites in source and location, so that we can identify all the sounds that need to be recorded whilst we have access to a certain prop/location.

Wednesday's session feels quite unplanned and because we decided not to have a meeting last Thursday, we may have lost some of the momentum we had.

The introduction of the work with Kontakt has potential to hinder our work as a team and we need to make the most of the time we have as a team to work on the group aspects.
