Oscar Nominated Animated Short Films



Paperman by John Kahrs. 
I already have a feeling that this will win in Oscars. And yeah it did! 
The story is about an urban office worker who found that 
airplanes are instrumental in meeting a girl in ways
he never expected.
He threw paper airplanes through the window to the next building 
where he saw the girl he met earlier. 
He tried to make him notice but he didnt succeed. But then these airplanes he
made, became something that led both of them together. 
A simple, but amazing short film story.
A winner!

Foley Making


We made a foley on the first ever Tron that was created in the year 1982.
The part we did was when they are on the game grid. It was a fight between the blue and gold.
The game was to get the opponent into their jet lights in order to eliminate them.
After that, the survivors of the game tried to exit/escape.

The techniques we used are object movement and sync.
The foley sounds we made was to sync in with the movement of each sound.
Voices of characters are heard and also the swoosh and motor sounds and movements of their jet
bikes.
