wow! your work has been aired on the discovery channel :D that must be a hell of an experience to see (or hear) your work on the telly.. good going!

It was fun to work on too. Some of the episodes had black and white stock footage war scenes with no sound and I had to create all the sounds effects. I also did some sound effects for a few computer generated animations with dinosaurs and other interesting stuff.

These days, I do mostly radio commercials and post-production for web videos. Not as much fun but it pays the bills. ;-)

aaah nice :D

so you actually physically make the sounds?

or put them all together?

[unclesaboin]

Mostly, I take them from pre-recorded sound effects libraries and then edit them and process them to get the sounds I want. Sometimes, I record the sounds myself if I need to. If I wanted to make a sound for a dinosaur, I might take a couple of recorded animal sounds and process them and combine them to make a new sound. I might put up samples of the scenes I worked on if I can find the DVDs.

An example would be when the sword cuts through the rock near the end of this video. I took the sound of a circular saw going through a sheet of plywood and something else I forget, and I processed them and got that schwing sound that you hear.
