Sound Final

For out final sound project we were assigned to create a 5 minute long mixed media piece that combined sound with some other medium. Because I am a 3d animation major and the entire reason I took this class was to learn to make custom sounds for my animations I decided to use my 3d final animation from last year and complete redo all of the sounds for it.
Previously I had just swiped some music from the Final Fantasy XII soundtrack for it, but what I have done with the sound for it in this project is a HUGE improvement.
I really wanted to get the dark, creepy aura of the castle that you are walked through in the animation and the transition from the sunny day with birds chirping when you are outside the walls, to rain and wind inside the walls, to a strange, dark ambiance once inside. I feel like I was pretty successful with what I wanted to achieve, I am only concerned now as to whether or not it is experimental enough for Erik's liking, but I feel like too much beyond what I have done would have taken away from the face that the animation is a narrative piece and well... this is the sort of way that I will actually be putting the things I have learned in this class into use in the future.


...Oh god, this file is HUGE! I have to upload it to a different host because the others won't accept the file size. You'll have to deal with megaupload!
