Adding Cartoon Sound Effects to the Action


What's a good "reverse action" clip without a cartoon-ish sound effect or two thrown in for good measure? On the DVD that accompanies this book, we've provided you with just the right clips, cartoon_bonk.wav and cartoon_stagger.wav.

Add Sound Effects

Click the Get Media from button on the Media panel to access the Get Media from view, if it's not already active.

Select DVD, Digital Camera, Mobile Phone, Hard Drive Camcorder, Card Reader.

When the Media Downloader displays, click the Advanced Dialog button to switch to Advanced mode.

Select the following clips for this project:

  • cartoon_bonk.wav

  • cartoon_stagger.wav

Click the Get Media button.

Drag and drop the cartoon_bonk.wav clip from the Media panel onto the Audio 2 track in the Timeline directly under the B1 clip, being careful to line it up with the start of the B1 clip.

Drag and drop the cartoon_bonk.wav clip a second time onto the Audio 2 track directly under the B2 clip, being careful to line it up with the start of the B2 clip.

Drag and drop the cartoon_stagger.wav clip onto the Audio 2 track directly under the video clip, C1, being careful to line it up with the start of the C1 clip.

Tip

To easily drop the sound effects clips on the right spot, "scrub" first with your CTI along the runners.avi clip to the point where you want to drop the sound effect. This will give you an easy guide for lining up the sound clip with the video clip.
