Texas A&M University-Commerce, creates a new Intro video for their Football games every year. This year they decided to go above and beyond to produce a video that pulls together the talents of students from many different areas. The whole concept revolves around a quote that you’ll see at the beginning of the video: “A&M-Commerce is a Sleeping Giant”. In order to bring this quote to life we personified it through a Giant Lion (the school’s mascot) having it stomp through town.
My main task was to design and record the sound for the Giant Lion (Generously animated by VisComm students). Along with a few processed library effects, I was able to experiment and add sounds from my own arsenal as well as take the final recording and blast it through the Stadium speakers (for the final scene) to Worldize the Lion and truly get that massive and real sound.
Additionally, I provided the Original Musical Score for the video.
