The following video is a teaser of our games trailer with added sound. This is for one unit of our course to use clips downloaded from a sound library. I edited the air siren noise because initially it was to long. However just shortening the clip proved to be difficult because the only way i could find to do this was by speeding it up. This led to problems with pitch because speeding up the clip made the pitch go 10x higher than normal and made it sound stupid, to solve this i added a pitch modifier via audacity to restore it to somehwere near it's original size. All my other clips were the right length for the trailer.
This is not the final piece as it was just a test to show we can use sounds effectivley, i thought using an air raid siren, explosion, ambulance sirens and the obvious fire crackling noise best fitted the scene.

Update - My current role
My current role in the producing of the games trailer is animation and cameras within 3d studio max. So far we have created a small clip of our bar scene. There is still animation to be done with characters and possibly animals. And plenty more camera work. Currently im waiting for some finished products to be handed to me so i can begin animation, normally it wouldnt matter if they were fully completed but as they are nearly done it makes it easier.
The initial idea with the bar scene is that it starts off all happy in the bar people having fun and then the camera pans around a pillar and all hell has broken loose. There is fire everywhere and then when the camera spins around it reveals a tank has broken through the wall and destroyed the place. I have used bipeds to represent characters in both scenes however in the second scene they are dead bipeds. There was a noticable difference in the rendering with fire and the one without, a 700mb difference infact. This caused a few storage issues with only having a 1gb memory sitck that contained other work. Eventually i put the two videos together in movie maker just to show what we are aiming for in the finished product, somehow this video was only 9mb from the original 740mb we had.
