Evaluation - Wall-e Clip

I chose to create the sound for a one minute clip of Wall-e. This clip was taken from the beginning of the film where Wall-e is finding different objects from Earth and compressing them into a rubbish site.

I found this clip hard to recreate because I chose to not listen to the original clip before I added my sounds. The character Wall-e was also hard to recreate because Wall-e doesn't actually talk so I had to use robotic sounds from Garageband that represent Wall-e. This was hard because it was like creating the Wall-e character from scratch.

I mostly used sounds from Garageband because I needed such a wide variety of sounds, it was easier to use a mixture of the sounds I had in front of me. I used my own ADR sounds too, this gives me the freedom to create Wall-e more effectively. Wall-e needed a wide range of robotic noises; from engine noises to Wall-e's "speech" so by using objects such as springs, squeaking chairs, cups etc, I could recreate Wall-e in my view.

I found this clip to be a good choice because it made me think outside the box. When thinking about what ADR to use and how I wanted to represent Wall-e I had to think what program would be best suited for me. I decided to use Garageband because I was most confident with the software and it had the appropriate sounds I needed to use. I enjoyed this clip because it was a challenge and pushed me to think of new ways to create the sounds I needed for ADR.

To conclude, I think I did really well and created a clip to a professional standard. I am happy with the way I represented Wall-e as a character because it's how I imagined him to be. I wanted to represent him as a child friendly character because the film is a family film so I made sure Wall-e was amusing and funny.
