Chaplin Foley Remix!

Posted by

This week, we were tasked with remixing some of the previous work of ourselves and other students from the Chaplin Foley assignment from weeks 6-7 and using them to remake the Charlie Chaplin clip for the Charlie Chaplin Foley Artist assignment.

I chose to remake the clip using a mix of sounds from my classmates, trying to keep them all mostly based upon sound effects and not including any spoken words, hoping to make the clip a comedic adventure.

To make the clip, I downloaded the sounds that I wanted to use from SoundCloud, the music from Incompetech and used KeepVid to download the film clip. I imported them all into iMovie and put the sounds in order, setting the music track’s volume to 16% in order to be able to hear the sound effects over the music. I made the credits, wanting to give them a circus feel and published the clip to YouTube.

I used the following clips and music in my video:

For music I chose to use Call to Adventure by Kevin MacLeod, which I felt gave the piece the comedic feel I was hoping for.

The only issue I had with the assignment came when dealing with Clip 2. One of the clips was only 16 seconds long, so I could not use it. I had to use the 29 second clip which was unfortunately staticky and takes away some from the rest of the clip. The only way that I thought that I could fix this was by recording my own clip, but that was not part of the assignment.
