Alongside Visual Effect editing & Compositing, I’ve come to learn that sound design & sound effects are extremely important. Putting myself forth to learning sound design has been extremely fun and exciting and giving myself the opportunity to learn it has really enhanced my creative skills.
Here’s my first big commission through a professional organization. Through the marketing and outreach that I gained from my “VINSMOKES” sound design project, I found lots of clients and people wanting to get the sound design done for their personal edits, big projects, commercials and the like. Team Falcons didn’t directly reach out to me, however through my connections with people in the AMV community, some of my friends who were working on the 3D design for this commercial recommended me to the Falcons team.
This was my first major sound design project “VINSMOKES”. One of my friends within the AMV community made this multi-editor project (MEP) with a few other mutual friends, and desperately needed someone to do sound design for the entire project, so I stepped forward to the position. Doing sound design for this project greatly enhanced my sound design prowess and a lot of people were quick to tell me I had a knack for sound design. This project propelled me within post-production in a way none of my other projects have. Once people saw this project, I quickly started getting an influx of commissions from regular people within the community, outside of the community and also big gaming/content organizations.
