Freesound Forums

After a bit of negotiation and contract updating with the attornies at Disney, I recently worked out a deal with the producers to allow use of http://freesound.iua.upf.edu/samplesViewSingle.php?id=14739 for the DVD release of http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Step_Up_2.

It will be used in the menu transitions as a sound effect, I assume only part of it since it's a bit long.

Anyway, it isn't like I got a job with Dreamworks or anything, but it couldn't have happened at a more perfect moment.

Thanks to Bram and all at Freesound for giving a little platform for sound geeks to show off their bloops and bleeps and also for providing a great resource for those looking for sounds that they need.

As soon as I get my laptop and my USB mic out of the pawn shop. I will be doing some monophonic field recordings and posting some new stuff, maybe I can finally record a hurricane this season. Also the lightning here is apparently more intense than anywhere on earth so maybe instead of distant rumblings I can get a near strike without blowing the levels through the roof. Wish me luck...

MOST awesome!

did you get some money for it? or did they attribute creative commons style?

you're most welcome, dear NoiseCollector!

PS: you posted the same message twice I deleted one.

Thanks, they were unable to attribute properly so we worked out an arrangment that works and keeps the sound in the CC for other use by others without conflict.

I just noticed the new url, congrats.

And check out LG's new noise at my label:

- Nice one NR - just got back from holiday and catching up with posts and came across this one. Really pleased for you - it's a great sound anyway but nice to see a hard working freesounder get some recognition.
