The Animatrix - The Chase (Kid's Story) - Project for Post-Production Audio Lab Class

UPDATE: Made it as one of the finalists at the 127th AES Convention Score and Sound for Picture category.

I've won first place for the Audio for Picture Awards ceremony at my school. More info here: http://www.audioschool.com/about/latest-news/2009/07/17/iars-summer-2009-afp-...

First off, the animation is not by me and is not owned by me. For more information on this animation, go here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Animatrix

This was a project for Post-Production Audio Lab at Institute of Audio Research. Youtube squashed the quality of both video and audio, so you might not be able to hear the subtlety.

About 99% of the SFX are from www.freesound.org. The one foley we created was the grinding noise from the skateboard. Thanks to Simon Mazik for helping me out.

The music is an original composition by me. I segmented the piece of music according to the transitions of the video.

The ADR are done by friends of mine. Big thanks to Albert Lim, Victor Lien, Kenneth Wonderland, Jackie Cruz, Linda Chen, Dorothy Hui and her friends.

Enjoy!

@TheseNuts86 they said in the first movie, if you die in the matrix you die in the real world too. It was during Neos training, after the fight with Morph, when he came back his mouth was bleeding, and asked this question. I guess Kid somehow got himself out before the impact, this is also mentioned in the second movie. Neo says: I didn't help you, you helped yourself, or something like that.
