Ash vs the Evil Dead Foley
Holy shit!! What an amazing 3 months of audio adventures during the creation of the Foley and sound design for this show. Amy, Gareth, Jonathan and myself provided the Foley for Episodes 2 to 10 (Ep 1 being done in LA for Sam Raimi) and during the progression of the series, Jonathan and Gareth also started doing the SFX track lay for episodes 6 to 10.
So it was a very busy and very rewarding 3 months worth of work!!!
Aside from recording some great Foley and insane Gore, we provided a Chainsaw record for the SFX team, got to do a gun record with some of the weapons from the show (under the watchful supervision of the licensed owner), go crazy with some grinder recording and visit the set to record the legendary Delta (what a beast of a vehicle) and Ruby's car.
I could continue for paragraphs explaining the fun but its better to see a few pics:)

Short Film Foley
Christmas and New years have been and gone already and we're back into it!
With January coming to a close already, I managed to spend the last two weekend performing foley for 3 short films. Always fun doing shorts, as there is a lot of variety in a short space of time.
Cheers to A.Barber and M.Logie for the recording....
