The computer wizards here at MAKE just wrapped this spot for Child’s Play Charities. I helped concept and write the idea, directed the motion capture and voice actors, and was Supervising Sound Editor on the piece. This was some of the most fun I have ever had sound designing. Monster’s, guns, explosions, aircraft, all sorts of mechanical workings and a ton of creative freedom.
The piece also gave me my first experience directing motion capture, which isn’t as easy as it may sound. It was difficult getting my head around much bigger, theatrical movements so the motion capture device would read. You really begin to analyze the movement of the human body.
