CHASE SCENE ELEMENTS
Your hands are sweaty on the wheel.
The pedal's on the floor and you focus on the road, tires peeling out underneath
you.
Finally, with a quick glance back you realize - they're after you. The sounds
of a car chase are intense and easily recognizable. Cars crashing, tires
skidding and peeling, an automobile leaving the pavement and bounding back
down, and sometimes, a cliff drop, roll and fiery crash below. Because these
sounds are so specific, and so hard to get on your own, The
Hollywood Edge is proud to offer all of the effects necessary
to sound your own car chase scenes, including high speed chases and crashes,
all on a five-CD set.
The digitally, multi-track recorded and mastered effects include real impacts,
crashes, cliff and water drops staged exclusively for this set.
Cars were dropped from over 100 feet and crashed onto different surfaces,
others were rolled off of 250 cliffs, and special ramps were constructed
for jumps and crash maneuvers - just like scenes for major Hollywood productions.
The multi tracks can be used individually or in any combination and consist
of motor/exhaust, rear tires, interior driver's perspective, exterior bystander
perspective and a mix of all of the tracks. Featured sound elements include:
crashes (stationary and moving impacts), skids, peels, 180 degree spin-outs,
surface changes (paved road and off road), cliff drops, water drops, cornering,
other high speed maneuvers including driving at various speeds, hard ins
and jumps/hills/bumps.
The types of vehicles featured include a compact automobile, full size automobile,
sports utility vehicle/truck and a sports car.
