In week 5, we had work in progress critique. Every group has over 15 min to present the progress of collaboration, both visual and aural experience. As part of our presentation, we have shown our group’s PowerPoint presentation, which illustrates our concept, what is going to happen in sequences, sketches made by Doris and Miranda, and a timetable with some of the deadlines we imposed on ourselves to keep track of our progress and get work done. We also listed sound effects, soundscapes we will need, samples of sounds we had made so far, and lastly pictures of how our set looks like so far. Lastly, people had the opportunity to experience our set in VR. We got in overall really good feedback. We were praised for our organized work, clearly marked sounds we need for a specific scene, and for our pattern of collecting sounds for future use in our collaboration work. We were advised to explore foleys that have been made for sci-fi movies like the soundtrack for a movie called “Gravity” and an interesting showcase of building up the action with silence. Other example of work, which can be helpful for our concept and our development, was Hideo Kojima’s sound production for games.
