Bonobo

For inspiration I have been listening to a lot of different electronic artists that I feel have a good idea of production and creating a certain mood within their songs. Bonobo is someone I find I can get a lot of inspiration from. All of his music seem to have a different mood and when listening you can imagine them fitting well in a certain scene or even a location. 

Nightcall

As I'm doing Oblivion, I have decided that I want to do something electronic with the sound design, this will mean that I will use a midi keyboard for the majority of the sound. I decided to watch drive as during the film it has a lot of electronic tones that create mood. I also enjoy the soundtrack to it, Kavinsky Nightcall especially, this song kicks in at the start and I think it works tremendously, although drive isn't a very futuristic film I think the sounds it uses work great and I feel I could do something similar. 

Chris Watson

Carrying on from my previous post about Joanna Milne the women who only heard for the first time at the age of 39; I was watching my local news and story came on about Chris Watson, I involved Joanna and Chris going to Saltwell park in the early hours of the morning, this was so Joanna was able to listen to the variety of  sounds from the different types of wildlife that inhabit Saltwell park.   

I found this very interesting from my previous idea of somebody hearing for the first time and the effect it would have on you and I really like the idea of introducing the sounds of somewhere close to your home that even someone who could hear probably hasn't heard before. Such as the sounds of the wildlife early in the morning or even the simple sounds of trees, stuff they we take for granted and block out.

Oblivion

I have decided to choose oblivion as the film I will do for my final sound piece, the reason I have chosen this one is because I will be able to experiment with synths as it will fit in with the genre of Sci-Fi. I want to use synths for as many of the actions that are involved in it as possible. I have already created a sound design for the first 30 seconds as shown in my screenshot.
