Sound Placement and Comedy

   The sounds that I chose had to be placed very intricately for their desired traits to be achieved. For example the jazz music in the background cannot be louder than a sound effect, that would take the whole point from it.

   Inputting and modifying sounds was a bit complicated on Premiere Rush. Since audio is on 3 different lines, I had to play with it a bit to overlay sound effects on an existing soundtrack. There were 2 main soundtracks to the film. One was only for the start before he encountered the chess piece.

Below are examples of how the sound is overlaid in Premiere Rush.

The fighting scene had the most complications to it. At one point I had to overlay 4 sounds together and mix the volume so it doesn’t sound odd.

Here is another example at the end of overlaying audio.

I tried to achieve comedy through the use of sound effects. When the chess piece was growing I put the Mario growing sound effect. When the character got kicked in the area I put a  very exaggerated screaming.
