50600 euro currently, more people than ever on the move road might in such a life. you know, this is a very difficult johnny. and one big guy me got you all is very hard. they beat you, they take all everything, all your stuff, find out about sell month story in. so my going reliable news to migrate. that they may be a ah, he's an unknown international superstar. the man behind the sounds and builds,

everybody knows. okay, so the dragon is about to climb up the wall and bust through into a grin. got spank. so one of the 1st things that we would have done would be the large sign to fax. all the metal placing that he busts through with some pieces of glass metal plate. should we do a tank englishman? pete burgess is one of the world's leading foley artists. he's created sounds for film such as sherlock holmes, james bond and slum dog millionaire. and if you remember hearing harry potter escaping through a glass roof on the back of a dragon, you're already familiar with the magic pete virtuous performs in his studio. barbara, working in the industry for 35 years. i worked on hundreds of phone. even though the 1st harry potter i did 20 years ago, it's phil hugely popular unfold. most people recognize me for the harry potter.

i was flying up into the distance. pete himself has also taken off in search of some calm after leaving a hectic, london life. tired of having to sink his studio hours to the subway time table, he decided to relocate to the mecklenburg countryside in northeastern germany. he and collaborator, upon cisco toiler, have moved to a farm near her old home that since become a permanent construction site. yeah, absolutely. this yeah, totally, it's a big project, so it's going to take a while and i'm down because of to push to provide. we do it by bit. we've already done and not being a part of you for that i am, i'm that i'm fine. when we started the construction 3 years ago, it was just an empty, stable leave of shy the wider hello, hello. on n o v i had to re began tearing down the walls here and had the roof fixed up in

this land, even if it sounds like a long time. something is upgraded every day. unfortunately, intact over noise fenced. a new window here a will that noise and paint work. this is a, this is our water stage. dear hm. we had it built exclusively to make recordings with water or am better off nam smile. and us, man, you can recreate the sounds of an open c for example, without it sounding out officials and marketing as well. that's why we put up these boards, which work very well. good folks, indian that mike van, they, mike will afloat also have this blue color. lavish treasure order. flat the plan. everything here will be painted in this color super as it began. so grapes, i. so the whole lower part will be blue with us. nice. good. they had to dig 3 meters deep for the pool, making the boley farm. europe's 1st recording studio with a water stage of this size. we have we officially, we have some different levels here. the 1st,

the angle is the 2nd to here for takes in knee, deep water, then up to the head. yeah. and the last one would be for when you're swimming, then you have to water and up to here it is. vasa, go. the opposite wall will have a big screen, hands on the line one, when the and then we can perform the pieces quite comfortably in deep water without any chance a doubt, crating the acoustics. an open c requires and often is mia? the 1st recordings are set to begin in 4 weeks, but the local construction team is facing even more challenges up from the less that they've discovered that a transformer in francisco studio creates interference in the background. lou and let's have a look of you know, how many did you install his position and as both empathy and let him i'm from every lighting job has this small blue box. yes. and those as you recall, and those are old transformers. elizabeth and that means we'll have to listen to

each one before he has martez honda. this is the i assume that say it really feels like it's coming from the ceiling. this is from your kids, the transformers. i'm almost certain super alice was thought until i will have to remove anything with the transform ahmed in all the computers with fans are already in the next room. so there's space for some extra cables in latin windows. yeah, that's any have we can't have any sound in the background. no matter how quiet because we record even quieter. sammons seem like somebody running my fingers through the hand and it's a very subtle sound, but we have to record that too. so it's really important that the studio is extremely quiet. extreme lies us. luckily, there are creative solutions and kind of start a small roof and some curtains that we can adjust synchron if we're doing a scene in the park or in a field. for example, we close all the curtains and seen v alley flooring a complete. so there's a wide variety of flooring because recreating footsteps is a big part of any foley artists work. i'm so glad to learn this isn't like

a smooth a footpath. it's a bit rougher and sounds like this too. oh, yes ma'am. and he is my pride and joy cobblestone. his detroit for a move is, i'm happy sound for film set. in old times. i tried footsteps in hyde park through these and up tiles. here. the meadow section or the organism which we rearranged for every record and then have you hit us and these are the different types of gravel now finders. 19 small pebbles and big pebbles. you or me, i sometimes go up here to that 1st we have these stairs here to make this hollow staircase sound. yeah, that's it. and hey, we have a hollow and flu. perfect. the old berlin storms happen. it's loud so tired. it's really nice when you get such a special sound, very different from all other wooden, from latin and hood burden. as on to recreate that, we put a filling underneath the floor boards here. some sounds required extra work. when

most people, urine unborn republish these tiles all the time in about half a year, they should sound like a hospital flaw is on kong. francisca grew up in spirit eine, but lived in london for many years. now she's back in mecklenburg with an international team consisting of a scotsman, a spaniard, and an englishman. okay. today they're recording for sounds in summer max you need to somehow walk as low as possible. yeah. could you want fox and pick it up? well, wait for the caveman for you. no big no. ha, ha ha, ha, ha ha ha ha ha ah ah

ah, ah, bully artists are a rare sight in the wild. but bringing a whole forest into the studio would be a bit too extreme. and how do outdoor recordings compare to the studio? i english no 9 seats. i did friend. i lose. we still do the mainland in the studio station, but especially with forest recordings on us. it sounds better when you can make something breelyn of us. same thing with recordings in the snow. them all we anyway

is do some takes in real snow ation. we have some pre recorded takes from my garden, but once i'm gotten o ice skating is another example and, and when viewed as ice skate do you have to skate to the image. but if you come at one or 2, why sounds from a live recording of what's even better? ma'am? i in my rooms who denzel's ashan 2 weeks later and the pool is already filling with water. but the wrong kind of good and who is filling up quickly because her container is small. true no. this will be loud in the morning is there for the ground here is very oily with lays of groundwater looking food to keep the water out. we're making this as dry as possible. the thing when you coast of pain will waterproof it, and then water conceit through from the outside of the above to it, as was off when i was in, the mo voice wouldn't come. francisco's brother is working on a special assignment,

a creek box that can make squeaking sounds like an old door. as most nation shewn, she doesn't have to look fancy with just my get the job done. ah . that was so loud. finish out a shot. my sister was startled, but i wasn't because my hearing aid reacted quickly. guns nearly. her brother is hard of hearing, but for francisca hearing, every sound is vital. minecraft isn't missing. i used to be disappointed because we couldn't work together. i'm certain things yet to them. but now i think it's great anguish also because we get to do what he enjoys warned is that the dylan part of the team dennison is just the way it is sad. and it's never been any different because he's been hard of hearing since birth. but everybody has to find their own way.

ah, but that happens to lease can't turn it has the same place. i do wish i was also surprised when my sister asked me to build the alley. better manage with circa zacky. sloane bowen? pretty sure this is the 1st time i can hear what i've built, but it's up to town harbor. not bad initially. but it's like a toy or something and it's like being a google nice for. but will the pros agree clear. thank her. yeah. not that. yeah, nice. did you try it? chris? don't have a habit i did. i can hear the mid range sounds,

but kick i'm on. i says he can adjust it by tightening this lovely. lovely. very nice. oh, well, put the box on top. you are does have it will be louder. so bit of a resonance of the word a little just improve and improve and improve. and as these ropes get older and tighter, it'll be squeaky or and squeeze her yet. it's fantastic. yeah. ok. let temporary pool has to be drained because next door pete studio is being remodeled on does is it? and that's a really friendly job. read the field thinking with a gun filling out a new studio will contain this big room name the one next door,

and that wall is also coming down organ to the studio will be at least 20 meters long, long of invite. so if i'm, if you imagine i'm making assigned a fight for a car crash, for example, i want to be able to pick up a car door iron, throw it, and really make some noise and smash things up. well, in a smaller room i could cause damage. so here in this big room, i can be able to just create much bigger, more dynamics. i'm hello, welcome to my video, but back door with . all right, let's make the most space. and now, pete, can forget about getting any more work done in his studio today.

oh, nope. in her. thank you, book back. don't who i think we're all right. working and living together as a group had always been francisco's dream mission isn't the reason it's always been important to have a place where everyone feels comfortable. an international welcoming place where everyone can put that unique talents to youths. vincent, unfelt, good about their work calendar. as it is here, i didn't drop mankind. and when you can also say, i'd like to go away for a month. it's much that's also possible here. it's good. here, there are fewer constraints than in the normal work place. the it's bye so much more about people liking every minute of the time they spend a minute. and though she might want to hang out a bit longer, the night shift awaits the

deadline for a new episode of a german crime show is quickly approaching. and the construction noise during the day means night time is the only quiet time. exciting and i've always of so that's good. okay, great. bear with me. it takes them 5 nights to record and mix all the sounds for an hour and a half a film below the as all alone, and pretty loud. i don't know. do you want to test? i think it's, it's going to be now into the blow it out. step on the mirror just, you know, device but what's happening now with

the frequency math. i think it needs more shots in it. oh, a a . before becoming a fully artist for film, francisco worked as a musician and sound engineer said to with the kids, i think that sounds like bit stream, right. or maybe the base fits with suzanne was and it works well together. maybe the crunching sound is a bit you loud, just flash number since loud over. glad at that if you ha, ha ha, yes,

later. the next morning, pete's the 1st person in the kitchen as usual. first thing i have to do though, i have a cup of tea, little bit of milk, sugar, classic british cup of tea. an occasionally, an english breakfast, which is what i'm doing today for everybody. no, i deal of sausages, but i have a little complaint in the u. k. the meat in sausages hasn't been processed, so it's not smooth. and here it's every fell features is smooth. and back for me, the little bit weird. but these ones with some hubs in them. i really like i'm kinda kaiser krakow, or sausage with cheese in is my favorite the smell of a full english breakfast, lures the others in good

morning, let me talk real quick. uh huh. the kitchen, not only functions as the farms main meeting place, but also as a trophy room for a collection of emmy statues. and sometimes even an ad hoc studio way to find my right. it sounds like rain falling on a roof or rain, a track of rain you could do for frying bacon. when you hit a melon it sounds like somebody having the hand. but yeah, you know, all fruit invades have a lovely kind of m, fleshy texture. tomatoes are great for doing little kind of explosive, juicy noises. somebody being punched in the nose or something like that. so yeah. breakfast, i mean breakfast could easily be

a fairly fashion in it. felt sure you're cheating. lemmy feet doesn't have time to play very long with the dogs this morning . francisco wants to visit a 2nd hand market. hello. hello. hello guys, i kinda got the kids contain a 2nd hand lama, clothes, table, cloths, and outdoor is over there. with didn't be careful to do it just drive it from a little bit of to sniff hamburg blog from barton. it's nice to move. and so begins and acoustic shopping spree

mark it's nice it all the growth from nice bought a pi. oh oh, i'd like to come here with the bigger van. yeah, we really have a big i. yeah, as of monday is a lot ahead. if you let these hang, cuz they just make the same weird sound. it's slightly disturbing if you see a running horse in a film constantly making the same sound from corner from of them. and that's a bit off. but if you hold it tight levels and then you get different sounds more like a horse being vauxhall from 9 little beeswax would make it sound less. try talking with kings. okay. like oh yeah. i like it. let's come, i'm a good. it's always good to have something like this in reserve, and this is actually a really good wouldn't container being

a hoarder is just part of the job. anything could come in handy some day. but today they find a real treasure. some lovely old school bakelite switches really difficult to recreate that noise with modern technology. but that's fantastic thumb kind of mechanical bring the lead time a thing. got a door. it's so much to do with filmmaking. light come through, hit the negative. exactly for yeah. i see time for exposing the photograph. amazing. okay. that's. that's a great fine. oh,
