Re: Sound Design // FM Synthesis // Foley // Field Recording
Watched it a couple of days ago, there are some pretty interesting things they talk about. Had a laugh too.

Re: Sound Design // FM Synthesis // Foley // Field Recording

Just finished this one!
Quite an interesting book that goes in depth to explain the way sound in movies (and in general) works on the human mind. Learned a fair bit of interesting information!
If you have it on your to-read list, then definitely read it, you won't regret it.
Re: Sound Design // FM Synthesis // Foley // Field Recording
Nice one, thanks for reporting back. Will buy it when the funds allow me to

Re: Sound Design // FM Synthesis // Foley // Field Recording
Yeah, it's definitely a good book. Goes into detail about frequency and temporal masking, how emotion is conveyed through sound and music, sound spotting, how sound helps the narrative and believability, a technique here and there (like pitching down biting an apple, or breathing), different exercises and a lot of stories from different sound designers.
Re: Sound Design // FM Synthesis // Foley // Field Recording
Sounds like a really good read, exactly the type of stuff I'm looking for. I assume sound design techniques are only a small part of the book, right? Which is good as the Sound Effect Bible has alot this, no need for 2 books which are the almost the same.Disco Nutter wrote:Yeah, it's definitely a good book.

Re: Sound Design // FM Synthesis // Foley // Field Recording
There are techniques in it, but I wouldn't classify it as a sound creation manual. It's definitely a bit different to what I expected when I delved into it! But very good nonetheless!Project EX wrote:I assume sound design techniques are only a small part of the book, right?
