Hi Brent and others,
Don't believe anything you hear on TV. For example who else has been
suffering through the ridiculous noises edited onto the beautiful Blue
Planet footage? Anyone who has ever swum underwater knows that its pretty
quiet under there (apart from the incessant hum of some fisherman trying to
run you over in his boat) and those stupid noises added to the coral
spawning last week were just dumb. In fact when they later played the call
of the male Sperm Whale, I wasn't sure if the echo I could hear was what
they actually sound like, or what they sound like if they are singing in St
Paul's Cathedral!
I blame the unions. I reckon that after the show was made the Foley
Artist's Union said "this film is way to quiet, no explosions or car
chases... we'll have to edit some noise on before you can release it,
otherwise all of us stupid noisy, ill informed and intrusive foley artists
will be out of a job!
Thanks for the rave (one that has been building up for a while now), I feel
better now.
