I chose to create a soundscape using the Haunted House theme. I felt I could capture a good moment after seeing so much Resident Evil movies and games these last couple of weeks (Haha). I started with footsteps on a creaky staircase, then from there had my character opening doors, only to be surprised by ravenous dogs. The man gasps in fright, slams the door shut and scrambles to find a way out of this cooky mansion. I had some good fun and especially after hearing the end product. Looking for sources that are good for what you want is the most difficult part of the project.
