AA3 Week 3 - Foley I

For this week's exercise I have started on the sound of a window opening. I recorded myself in Studio 1 on the chair. I set up a microphone underneath the chair and rocked it back and forth to create a creaking sound. I then added some reverb to give the sound some space. I have added too much reverb at this stage but I didn't spend a lot of time on this sound. It was really just to demonstrate where my ideas are heading.
