    I'm Hayden Hillier-Smith, on this channel I will break down what makes good editing...pulling back the curtain on how editors make the choices to keep YOU, THE AUDIENCE engaged. This includes showcasing the creative choices I have made.
    And exploring the editorial process for other UA-cam channels in how they have optimised their content. I’m even going to take you through my journey where I experiment on how I can become a better editor and learn through my experiences.
    Whatever it is that I do on this channel, I hope you can learn something and discover your own ability on being a content creator yourself.

    This is exactly what Editors need, we know how to use the editing programs, but in the end, you're trying to tell a story, and you need to know how to emphasize and tell the story perfectly. Most people focus on the "epic" video FX and crazy transitions, but negate the basics of storytelling. Your channel is a goldmine, and it's for free. Incredible. Thank you.

    This was SO interesting to watch you discovering HOW TO do sound design. You have a nice sense of how it should sound. I genuinely think they used more layers. On punches I actually use more layers , usually going for at least 3: one for low/sub frequencies ( a big thumb so it feels pretty heavy), one for middles (the punch sound that you have) and one for highs (probably the bone crack or blood splat or both XD). And as you discovered we're trying to not layer perfectly, this way you have more impact on the punches. What you did definitely lack of some spatialization. It's all Raw sounds. you would want to use some (convolution ) reverb so the sound would not be up front, but coming from the characters. There's a lot of processing to get the amazing sound they got for the trailer . You made me willing to take this kind of exercise on my spare time! Enjoy your sound journey :)

  • @masihkhosravi9875

    Hey, a music producer here, comparing ur sounds with the original trailer sounds, i can hear that the original had a significant amount of bass in each punch, also i feel like the original sounds were compressed in a way that the dynamics of the sounds were much more punchy and sharper than urs! Great video btw

  • @retrorobot88
    @retrorobot88 2 роки тому

    Hi Hillier, I recently discovered your channel and absolutely love your content, thank you so much for sharing your process! I used to work as a voice actor in Hong Kong where we dubbed several Jackie Chan & Toho Godzillas into English and I can tell you that dubbing fight scenes was never easy! We always had to teach new dubbers not to make too much noise when their character was being hit - it takes energy to make those 'being hit' sounds and it never sounded natural in the final mix when the character was bloodied and battered that he/she would have enough energy left for that. We also had to train them to make more breathing noises because for some reason they thought the breathing noises would ruin the take where as it only makes the character come to life.
    Anyway - please keep your process videos coming - I'm learning so much from you!!

    For something that could easily be tedious, you really made the edit process amusing to watch!! I think this is going to become a REALLY popular series because you can go over your thought process as you edit and it’s just got a strong watch to end factor!!! Perhaps you could try making a general video on foley sounds or even recreate sound effects from something like Star Wars?

    Sick edit for sound design ! I think the only last thing i would've add is one more delayed punch (even the bone sound) when we see the gang's reaction just to emphasize what the gang see's wich is Batman making that choice again to keep going. It is pretty brutal!

  • @realydna
    @realydna 3 роки тому +1

    *Pitch Shift* is what you were looking for -> maybe detune more than one semitone and keep it at like 50-70% in the mix .. also I’d say lower the volume of the grunts, and play with reverb (on individual tracks or overall) for ambiance. Just my ✌🏽 cents 😎

    The Indiana Jones punches are award winning. And I don't know where to find it but I seen video on how they did them, a foley artist explained what is involved. But what stuck with me was how he explained "you tell a story with sound so a punch has a whoosh then a hit that breaks bones, a fist hitting skin, a pain that makes you moan, and even if you don't hear all the sounds your subconscious does." I'm paraphrasing.

    Without having insider knowledge, my guess is not that the pros are using less sounds, but rather they have a more intense mixing process than shown here. They are not only dialing in the gain for each sound, but using EQ's and compressors to emphasize different sounds. Perhaps you've done that and we're just not seeing it on screen. Thanks for the video!

    Great job! One thing to consider is some of the sounds in the original trailer may actually include some authentic sounds from on-set. Obviously enhanced with software in post but in this situation, I think (untrained opinion) the natural sounds combined with some effects and enhancements, will sound better than purely digital sound effects. Yours certainly passes to where I don't think anyone would know the difference - but when you put them side by side, I agree the original are better. Thanks for sharing!

    The punches and whooshes sounded top notch for me 👏 I use PP but pitch shifting works decent there...I don't know a ton about mixing and audio, but I like to play with stock SFX to make them a bit more my own...
    Btw the hardest part of SFX is to know what a certain sound is called (especially as not a native english speaker 😀)
