Horse Animation - Sound Effects Editing

Sound Effect Editing.

All sounds recorded were placed into a pro tools session for editing. The many sounds captured for the armor effects were layered in order to provide a more deep tonality to the effect making it more convincing with a similar characteristic to real  steel plate armor.

The Hoof sounds were Multiplied to provide a more deeper impact and EQ was subtly applied to produce slightly more bass from the thud of the hoof hitting the ground.

Hoof Scrapes were randomly picked from a selection of coconut scrapes which were also slightly edited using EQ to provide a more natural sound effect.
