Police Station Background Noise.
I have a film that was shot in a small room with a fancy set of angles and props to make it look like a Police Station so all I need now is the background noise to create the effect that my characters are actually in this station. Any ideas? Or do you guys have something like this or know where I can get it. Please don't say I'm going to have to compile it my self that will be a pain.

Re: Police Station Background Noise.
film making is tedious and can be painful at times. you should know this by now gyro. there is not always an easy way. heck the only easy way i can think of is actually go to your police station and record some sound haha. absolutely no compilation there. otherwise i suggest what kentertainment said.Gyro wrote:Please don't say I'm going to have to compile it my self that will be a pain.
Gyro ive been thinking of the same problem i have a few scenes in police offices (we're using a friends old mans business building) but yea im resigned to having to do it myself..........my only other option was to use sum classic cop movies kojak, dirty harry etc........but unfortunately you seldomly get just ambience alone. Another option is to search kazaa or winmx etc..........but i think ill attempts using a mixture of phone rings, door slamming, printers running, the odd shout. What is your movie about?

You don't need a police station in particular. Making a sound file compiled from other sounds can sometime over do it. Sure why not grab a mic and record at a police station? But all of us U.S. citizens know that it is illegal to record in police stations. So why not a bussiness office. You could always walk into one of them get 2mins worth of sound and when they ask you what in the hell your doing you run! Its not their gonna call the cops.

The mixing really should not be that hard. Like was said, just some talking sound effects overlayed by some ringing phones and police radio sound effects and there ya go. You've gotta be willing to put in the time if you want a great film, and that includes video as well as sound.

What's wrong with just driving down to the local Police Station and asking to record the atmosphere for a few minutes?
