JWcph, Radicalized By Decency<p>One of my major nerdy tingles is those little blink-and-you'll-miss-it effects really good directors know to put in their movies to enhance narrative, world-building &amp; action, but also to not shine a giant spotlight on &amp; break the pace, challenge suspension of disbelief, or sometimes even break the effect itself, because sometimes - like this one - it's actually pretty dodgy when you look at it too closely... 😂</p><p><a href="https://helvede.net/tags/movies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>movies</span></a> <a href="https://helvede.net/tags/SFX" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SFX</span></a> <a href="https://helvede.net/tags/IndianaJones" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>IndianaJones</span></a></p>
Large Format Projectionist<p>I know "Sound of Metal" (2019) did not originate the use of hi-freq tones to indicate character stress, but it I think it made this <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/SFX" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SFX</span></a> technique popular because it used it so well.</p><p>But holy crap, it is an ice pick through the eardrums for hearing aid wearers.</p><p>We're in the "enthusiastic adoption" phase of a new mode of expression. But please get the word out to <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Hollywood" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Hollywood</span></a> that this is spice, not gravy: Use it more sparingly.</p>

JWcph, Radicalized By Decency<p>If, like me, you're a fan of the "Slice of Life" guys, you'll be happy that LEGO discovered them &amp; asked them to help with a little promo film... what would you say if I told you that almost every single detail of this was filmed for real, in-camera, with models? </p><p>Because that's what Luka, Dino &amp; the SoL crew are really, really good at, as I think we can all agree looking at this little film 🤯🤩 </p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JBOvsWa4hPI" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="">youtube.com/watch?v=JBOvsWa4hPI</span><span class="invisible"></span></a> </p><p>BTS below 👇</p><p><a href="https://helvede.net/tags/SliceOfLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SliceOfLife</span></a> <a href="https://helvede.net/tags/LEGO" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LEGO</span></a> <a href="https://helvede.net/tags/models" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>models</span></a> <a href="https://helvede.net/tags/movies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>movies</span></a> <a href="https://helvede.net/tags/VFX" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>VFX</span></a> <a href="https://helvede.net/tags/SFX" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SFX</span></a> <a href="https://helvede.net/tags/miniatures" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>miniatures</span></a></p>

Various Sound Effect Libraries - 1970-1985

As most people who know me, know I have worked in post production for TV & Radio, doing composition as well as foley & recording for it, amongst regular music production & recording work. Which means I have collected libraries of sounds for a long while.
Whether on CD, tape, DAT, reel to reel or vinyl

These are just a few of the ones I’ll be sampling & putting into my newly acquired Digitakt II from Elektron - to use in upcoming music, events & gigs I’ll be playing in the future.
A fun evening of sampling awaits!

Thanks to the person who just signed up for a year's subscription to access over 150000 #SoundEffects and #RoyaltyFree #music tracks for £30. £30 for that many assets is a pretty good deal. What's more, because they were kind enough to click through my affiliate link, Zapsplat pays me some, which helps support my activism and generally keep a roof over my head.

I obviously love the freedoms & possibilities things like 3D printing has brought us - but there's something special about the efficiencies & creativity of using found parts & available materials to make otherworldly & cool-looking things 🙌

This, the original, full-size ED-209, which STILL EXISTS! 🤯, is one of the best examples of that in all of film & SFX history 🤩
