Media AS Group: CONSTRUCTION- Downloading specific Foley Sounds

I got most of my Foley sounds from youtube, due to to that website having the largest range of sound effects that i could find. For example, the sound effect of an escalator i could only find on youtube. I then downloaded the youtube clip to my memory stick.

I also got sounds from sound bible too. However, these sounds were more basic and i could only find a limited amount of sounds from there for example, cop siren noise.

The sounds i choose had to be specific towards the thriller opening and had to be realistic. For example, footsteps. Both main characters in the thriller opening were walking on concrete in London. therefore I therefore i had to find not only footsteps but footsteps that sounded like they were walking on concrete. This was where youtube was useful as there is a large range of sound effects available on there that covered 'footsteps on concrete.'

Additionally, the vehicle the assassin drove was a mini cooper. Therefore i had to find and research what the engine of a mini-cooper sounded like and on youtube and find the correct sound effect. It was important i used the sound of the engine of a mini cooper as otherwise it would not be realistic.

This was me picking a sound effect of the mini cooper engine sound effect on youtube.
