Stuck from Doug Hindson on Vimeo.
I really like the really subtle use of sound in this first short, the immediate silence enforces the obvious feeling of isolation and despair, with the blustering wind adding to the feeling of height. One of my favourite parts about the sound used is the bottle tipping over and rolling off the edge, I was instantly waiting to hear a 'smash' sound, which obviously never came, again enforcing that feeling of height. Does the sound I use in my short necessarily have to be a musical track? probably not, but I don't think I will be using enough moving elements to justify using sound effects.

This next skit uses music in a much more typical way. The animator uses music to portray mood directly, moving from a slow, dreary song in the first part, straight into a more uplifting track. Coupled with the brighter imagery, I is instantly aparent what the skit is trying to project.
