After a while from not hearing from Chris Hainstock about the Sound effects system, we went to his office and asked if he had heard anything about the software being repaired. He took us to the large audio recording suite which had the only computer able to run the program. This gave us time to gather our archive sound footage.
The collection that it had was vast. Gunshots, artillery, even the sound of footsteps through a muddy trench. Playing them through the surround sound the studio had was also quite an experience. Going through the script, we were able to collect most of the sounds we were looking for. Hopefully this will make the final piece of a very high quality.
At this point we are almost good to go on recording the rest of our scenes with our actors. The only problem we are faced with is that we still have had no response from the corporal. At this point, our options are to replace the actor with either one of our other actors or, get someone else entirely. Although this is disappointing, we don’t have time to gamble with whether or not this actor will show up. Hopefully we will soon find a solution.
