one single past due, she made china's face candle with 45 minutes on d. w, hulu. what people have to say matters to us. i am. that's why we listen to their stories. reporter every weekend on d. w. for oh, he's an unknown international superstar. the man behind the sounds and films,

everybody knows. okay, so the dragon is about to climb up the wall and bust through in so green 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 purchase performs in his studio barbara, working in the industry for 35 years, a worked on 100. even though the 1st harry potter i did 20 years ago,

it's phil hugely popular. and so most people recognize me for the harry potter. i was flying off into the distance. pete himself has also taken off in search of some calm after leading 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 can, and alan becomes us to push to cover. we do it by bit, we've already done and not being a part of him for that i am, i'm that i'm fine. when we started the construction 3 years ago, it was just an empty, stable home. little shy, the wider hello. hello. on n o v i d vent 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 fence daniel window here. i will there noise and paint work? this is a, this is i want to stage dear. hm. we had it built exclusively to make recordings with water. oh, vasa of nancy martin. and us, man, you can recreate the sounds of an open c for example. without it sounding out officials in my think as well. that's why we put out these boards which work very well. good folks in the, in that one, mike van, they, mike, will the floor also have this blue color velvet question order of last the plan. everything here will be painted in this color super as it began. so when grapes i to the whole lower part will be blue. with that it's nice you 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 behind me of her she,

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 and then you have to water. and up to here, get us vasa, go. the opposite wall will have a big screen, hands on a line one and, and then we can perform the pieces quite comfortably in deep water without any chance a doubt, crating the acoustics, and open see requires an office near the 1st recordings are set to begin in 4 weeks, but the local construction team is facing even more challenges up from the last the they've discovered that a transformer in francisco studio creates interference in the background. let's have a look. so this is a how many did you install here? put deep on both empathy and yet am i from, from every lighting tube has this small blue box? yes, and this is the recall, and those are all transformers. elizabeth,

and that means we'll have to listen to each one and form. yes, melissa, this is the, i assume that's it. it really feels like it's coming from the ceiling. this is from your kids, the transformers. i'm almost certain super elizabeth star 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 or so it's really important that the studio is extremely quiet. extreme laser is luckily there are creative solutions and kind of sta, a small roof and some curtains that we can adjust. seen current if we doing a scene in the park or in a field, for example, we close all the curtains and seen v al flooring a compact. so there is 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. oh yeah, my grandson in his my pride and joy cobblestone, his detroit play, a movie's, i'm happy sound film set in old times in hyde park footsteps in hyde park. these and up, tyler here, the meadows section. ready, organizations which we rearrange for every record and then have you hit us and these are the different types of gravel and all kinds of 19 small pebbles and big pebbles you or me, i sometimes go up here to that 1st we have the stairs here to make this hollow stack a sound? yeah, this is and hey, we have a hollow and flu. perfect. the old berlin storms. hot me. it's loud so tired. it's really nice when you get such a special sound. very different from all underwood. m. fernand and hood's 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. i me and in about half a year, they shouldn't sound like a hospital flaw is on kong. francisca grew up and spare green, 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 math. you need to somehow walk as low as possible. yeah. could you want fox? because my wife thought the caveman for you. no, no. oh 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, no 9 seats white dead front. i was, we still do the main web in the studio ventilation, but especially with forest recordings. honest grab it sounds better when you can make something breelyn of us. if the same thing with recordings in the snow,

we anyways do some takes in real snow and we have some pre recorded takes from my god and that one's gotten ice skating is another example and, and been viewed as ice gay. do you have to skate to the image? if you come at one or 2, why sounds from a live recording of what's even better? ma'am? i'm going to say who denzil possession? 2 weeks later and the pool is already filling with water. but the wrong kind of getting into that it's filling up quickly. ready because your container is small true, know this will be loud in the morning is if at the ground here is very oily with lays of groundwater with food to keep the water out. we're making this as dry as possible. and the thing when you coast of pain will waterproof it and then water conceit through from the outside of this to buffered us as was off when i was in the ha 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, it 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. gun smoothly. 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. yes. as am i, but now i think it's great anguish because we get to do what he enjoys. won't tell a part of the team denison is just the way it is. and it's never been any different because he's been hard of hearing since birth. everybody has to find their own way

. ah, but that happens to lease can't turn. it has to stay in place. i do wish i was also surprised when my sister asked me to build the alley. stuff of mileage with circa zacky started by one. would sure this is the 1st time i can hear what i've built, but his touch could turn harbor not bad initially. but it's like a toy or something like being a cool nice for. but will the pros agree? clear vanka growth. oh yeah. that yeah. nice. did you try it? chris? don't have a habit i did. i can hear the mid range sounds. would work. i'm on. i says he can

adjust it by tightening this lovely. lovely. very nice. okay. oh but well, put the box on top. it does have it will be louder and so bit of a resonance of the word a will just improve and improve and improve. and as these ropes get older and tighter, they'll be squeaky and squeeze her yet. it's fantastic. yeah. ok. the temporary pool has to be drained because next door pete studio is being remodeled and does it. and that's a really finley job. it does look like it with the gun filling out a new studio will contain this big room name the one next door,

and that wall is also coming down organ so that the studio will be at least 20 meters long, long of invite. so if i'm, if you imagine i'm making a sign to 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 with me. hello, welcome to my video. perfect dawn. 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 that you perfect. go through. uh huh. i think we're all i oh, 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 uniquely talent to use this in and feel good about their work calendar as it is here, that danger of mankind. and when you can also say good, i'd like to go away for a month. it's most of that is also possible here. it's good. here, there are fewer constraints than in a normal work place. be it's by 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 it's i think and i've always oh 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 of film with 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 too low. okay. it's out step on the mirror just, you know, device but what's happening now

with the frequency. you don't miss. i think he needs more shots in it. oh, a before becoming a fully artist for film, francisco worked as a musician and sound engineer said to with my kids, i think that sounds like the stream, right? or maybe the base fits to them and it works well together. maybe the crunching sound is a big you loud flash number since loud about your you let at that. if you ha, 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. and occasionally an english breakfast, which is what i'm doing today for everybody. and now i do live 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, if every fell fidget is smooth and back for me a little bit with. but these ones with some herbs in them, i really like and cases case krakow, or se with cheese in is my favorite. the smell of a full english breakfast, lures the others in. good

morning that account real quick. ha ha ha ha ha, ha! 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 say my right, it sounds like rain falling on a roof or rain, a track of rain you could do for crying bacon. when you hit a melon, it sounds like somebody having the had but yeah, you know, all fruit invades have a lovely kind of lamb, fleshy texture tomatoes, a great for doing little kind of explosive, juicy, noisy, somebody being punched in the notes or something like that. so yeah, breakfast,

i mean, breakfast could easily be a fairly fashion in it felt jaw your chief thing, lemmy. pete doesn't have time to play very long with the dogs this morning. francisco wants to visit a 2nd hand market looking at a book. thank you. hello. hello guys. i kinda got the kids contain a 2nd hand lama, clothes, table, cloths, and outdoor is over there. this didn't he careful with. it's a 5 bit smelling, but it's not hamburg. don't love the humbug. it's nice to move. and so begins and acoustic shopping spree

of mine is nice. it all the girl from nice bought my oh oh, i'd like to come here with the bigger van. yeah, we really have a big i as a lemon. d. as a look ahead. if you let these hang, they just make this same weird sound. it's slightly disturbing if you see a running horse in a film constantly making the same sound corner from of them and not a bit off. but if you hold it tight also and then you get different sounds more like a horse, been vauxhall from little beeswax would make it sound less. try talking with kings . okay. like oh yeah. i like it was coming from 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 to bring the time a thing. got a door. it's so much to do with foam making. lights come through it from negative. exactly for yeah. i see time for exposing the photograph. amazing. okay. that's. that's a great fine. oh,
