I went to film school when we shot on actual film! I recently went back to school to study Digital Media to start a podcast and shoot my own films.

Hal is scared that Dave is going to shut him down and will do anything to stop it. When the drums kick in, I want people to feel like it mirrors Dave’s panic to shut Hal down before Hal kills him. But when the drums start to slow, they realize it mirrors Hal panic, which turns to insanity and desperation.
I used a lot of my lab and midterm sounds made in Reaktor for MUS292, for the control panel sounds at the beginning. I used additive and subtractive synthesis. I recorded the IBM computer playing and singing Daisy Bell on my iPhone from YouTube. I also recorded the film scenes and dialogue from my iphone.
I edited the video in Adobe Premiere and used Adobe Audition to denoise the audio, and eliminated as much original sound as I could. I cut parts of the dialogue and imported them into the Independence sampler, and played them through Abelton on my keyboard at different pitches and lengths.
I used Dave’s breathing to make a granular synthesis sound. I used it as the noise floor/background noise in the second half of the film when he’s in the emergency airlock shutting down Hal.
I made the drum pattern in Soundtrap. I used two bass loops in Soundtrap, and made the third slow bass loop in Soundtrap as a MIDI track.
I used the IBM Daisy Bell recording in the beginning, almost like Hal is relaxing and listening to music. I found out that this is the first recording of a computer singing and Kubrick used it in 2001 for that same reason. At the end, I reversed it, lowered the volume to put it in the background while Hal tried to sing the song for Dave. I wanted it to add to the feeling of something being off.
I imported everything into Pro Tools for the final mix. I chopped up and placed the dialogue samples, the sound effects, and used time stretch and pitch shift towards the end when Hal is begging Dave to stop on the dialogue samples. I had all the dialogue, and sounds in the second part go through D-verb to give a sense of a bigger room.
This took me a long time but I had a lot of fun making it. It used all my skills in audio production and my very beginner skills in music making.
