I\u2019m still mega-busy, so brief production notes today.<\/p>\n
(And if you\u2019re wondering why, I purchased a house. I got a steep discount due to the fact that the previous owner had smoked in it for 20+ years. Figured some cleaning, some painting, new carpets, shouldn\u2019t take THAT long. But everything is a bit longer than I thought, and more importantly \u2013 new things I didn\u2019t anticipate keep cropping up. DAMN YOU, PLANNING FALLACY! \/shakes fist So this project has kinda taken over my entire life.)<\/p>\n
Things I Thought Were Annoying: Having to re-record every single line with the name \u201cLachlan\u201d in it in the first episode, because I found out I had mispronounced it a few days before it went live, and then having to splice them all in. \/grumble<\/p>\n
Things I Found Out Are ACTUALLY Annoying: Having to re-record the entire friggin\u2019 second episosde because when I was done recording it the first time I clicked \u201cSave\u201d and my computer thought it would rather hard-crash than save. \/killmenow<\/p>\n
Things I Was Surprised By: When trying to make the water sound-effects go from above-surface to below-surface I wasn\u2019t sure what to do and started playing around with the effects options. Almost the first thing I tried worked (literally \u2013 it was the second thing I tried). An extremely simple low-pass filter gives you that trademark Murky Underwater sound. Which immediately made me suspicious. Maybe being underwater sounds like that *because*it\u2019s an easy effect to do, so it\u2019s used a lot, and we associate that sound with being underwater<\/a>. Does being underwater actually <\/em>sound like that IRL? Now I have to go a swimming pool and test. It\u2019s entirely possible that water acts as a great low-pass filter IRL, but I got my suspicious-eyes on you, Hollywood!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I\u2019m still mega-busy, so brief production notes today.
