hobbiesodd Posted June 13, 2014 Report Share Posted June 13, 2014 Here is a fun article I think everyone here might enjoy about the origins of classic Sci/Fi movie sounds like Lightsabers and the Predator's heartbeat. The origin stories are good, and some of the old footage of waving microphones in front of speakers during the Star Wars sessions is fantastic... http://io9.com/10-weirdest-origins-of-classic-science-fiction-sound-ef-1590477009 Cheers, Evan Meszaros Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dfisk Posted June 14, 2014 Report Share Posted June 14, 2014 This is cool. I wish I could go back in time and watch them actually create those sounds from War of the Worlds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc Wielage Posted June 14, 2014 Report Share Posted June 14, 2014 That was great! The baby raccoon is worth the price of admission alone: Who the hell knew a baby raccoon sounded like some kind of hideous alien creature? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay Rose Posted June 15, 2014 Report Share Posted June 15, 2014 Who the hell knew a baby raccoon sounded like some kind of hideous alien creature A few decades ago, we had an adopted female cat who hadn't been fixed yet. One day she went into serious, all-star heat. I grabbed by trusty Uher and Sony Electret Cardioid (told you it was a few decades ago...) You'd be amazed how many times that hideous -- yet emotional -- cat growl managed to sell a monster scene. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
