![]() I can still remember the moment that I fell in love with what I later learned was described as "sound design". It all began while watching the movie, "Dead Presidents." A movie released in1995, that tells the story of Anthony Curtis, a Marine Veteran, who returns home after the Vietnam war. As he struggles to find stable work, he eventually recruits several former veterans to organize a heist of an armored car. Now I'm sure by now, I spoiled the movie if you have yet to view it, but hey...it's still what I consider a classic. So check it out anyways. During the heist on the loading dock, one of the security guards drops their gun. The sound of the handgun hitting the deck of the dock, sound so real! I was instantly in love with whatever that was. What I mean is the realism of that one scene and effect or foley, later I learned the terminology, that I wanted to know what it was and how could I myself learn to create that. I have to say that, the Directors Albert and Allen Hughes, notably known as the Hughes Brothers did an outstanding job in this creating this film. It wasn't until just recently I discovered that the Sound Effects Editor on this film, was the one and only, David Farmer. No wonder.
