sound work sheet

The film 300 rise of an empire has surround sound used in the film to help match its 3D visual effects.
In imax cinemas theirs 8 speakers to other cinemas 5.1 speakers. These speakers help give the audience the feel of the movie by using sound alone. The picture below shows how the sound effects the audience.  In a standard cinema the middle is the best point for the sound. but for the Imax the whole cinema gets the sound and this makes the audience get more involved with the film.  Imax cinemas are also pitch perfect so that the audience doesn't hear sound effects over voices and so foley is the right pitch of the right parts for the film.

Sounds film live

Waves calm- This is because the sounds would be been easy to get on the day, You can also hear the next waves coming in to the shore as the last one is heading back to the sea, the work need to be done to get this sound just right would of been a lot of work to get the same effect as filming it on the day.

Talking- The talking and shouting scenes would of been done on the day as it is when you have all the actors at the same place. How ever they might of ADR some of the background sound on 2:30-3 mins.

foot steps- foot steps would of been added filmed on the day but might of added foley to them later.

Foley

Holding drink- the clink sound from picking up metal would of been done foley.

picking up chain- the way the metal chain would hit it self( metal hitting metal) would be foley.

people being hit by bullets, bullets hitting metal, bodies hitting the floor- these would all so be done by foley they would all be done similar but with 1-2 differences to them( material or way you used the object).

Music

Their is a light charming sound for 1-3 seconds that is a different sound than the boat engines but with out it the boat engines would sound wrong.

SFX

All the other sounds would added this way.
