Adding sound

Sound is what will make the animation complete.

As a team we decided what background soundtrack we wanted to play along with the animation. We all really liked Hans Zimmer's 'Time'. It is a musical piece with no lyrics so it doesn't need to coincide with the date of the animation necessarily.

As well as this we wanted some sound effects to match some of the scenes.

We added:

Takeoff sounds for the Japanese takeoff

Sonar and klaxon sound at the control room

Heartbeat at the running corridor

Eva got these sounds from the web.
I really think they make the animation come alive and makes it even more emotive.

Placing the sounds in Premiere was very easy. We could accurately place them at the right moment, eg the klaxon at the point where the captain looks around in panic.
