183 - Conversation Particles Crowdsource Project
15 december 2021 · 19 min
We're launching a crowdsource! Lees meer
The purpose of this crowdsource is to generate a lot of source material from which to algorithmically generate walla crowds of varying densities and compositions. The goal is to be able to generate not only large gatherings of walla, but also the much more challenging 4-12 person groups that are often needed in post and games.
For this library you’ll bet setting up and recording one side of a real-live phone conversation with someone that you enjoy speaking to. To do this, we’ll be using earbuds on our phones during the recording (no speakerphone) The pauses and breaks in your natural speech will be pretty key to keeping the cadence of the walla sounding natural.
