Sound Effects

Sound Effects for the animation were harder than I thought. It was easy to find a bunch of material by using freemusicarchive.com, bensounds.com, and YouTube but it was difficult to find the right sound for Visions6. At first I thought of using a background song but I did the animation first so it is difficult to find a song that matches the animation. Next time I am going to find the sound first and do the animate in rhythm with a song.

Ironically, I was looking for a suspenseful, slow for background sound to represent space and after hundreds of audio files the sound that fits best is the actual sound recordings of space, go figure. If you have the time you should check it out, the sound is pretty mesmerizing and the video where I got the sound is designed for meditation. It is really some trippy stuff. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DyOZEBIH18I

Still do not know if it will fit perfectly for the current animation but I am definetely going to highlight the file to use in the future. It is a long file so we can snip and pick different parts for different animations to give variety while still coming from the same source.
