    Animal Sound Effects Modern Animation Library Play Track 341 sounds included $49

    The Modern Animation Library has all the essentials to bring your animated projects to life in vivid detail.

    Sound for animation requires two key styles of sound: silly and unique elements for movements, devices, and creatures that can only exist in animation; and gritty realistic elements that make the animated world feel real. This library has all that, including: weird dog whines; screaming cows; gadgets and machines; clean wind and trees; 11 angles on a single waterfall; zips and transitions; unique tonal elements; door movement and creaks; impacts; and more.

    When your general libraries don’t have a sound that’s interesting, specific, weird, or silly enough, turn to the Modern Animation Library for help!

  • City Life Sound Effects City Life Los Angeles Play Track 115 sounds included, 143 mins total $60

    City Life: Los Angeles is a collection of Sounds recorded in downtown Los Angeles, Long Beach, and some of the surrounding areas around LA.  The focus was Ambiences, Vehicles, Horns, Sirens, and more of the grittier / vibey sounds that can really add to a Soundscape when working with Backgrounds in Film Projects.  This library consists mostly of Exterior locations and with Vehicles and sounds without People , but there’s some Interior / Exterior Public Places mixed in with Walla and more Movement.

    The idea for this library started a couple years ago.  I thought it’d be cool to take the recording gear and really explore the Downtown LA area.  There’s quite a lot going on from a sound perspective, whether you’re on a busy Street in the Historic Core with Cars and Motorcyles revving away, or hanging out above the City on Bunker Hill, on a Parking Garage Rooftop with the constant City Fill, or roaming the streets of Chinatown.  The idea was to try to capture some of the sounds in spaces that are particular to not only LA, but also a lot of busier Cities.

    25 miles South of LA is Long Beach.  It’s a smaller Big City, but one that has a lot of character sonically.  For those recordings I mostly recorded in a neighborhood on a rooftop just outside of Downtown.  With these you get more of a distant perspective.  A few of the other recordings took place in some of the surrounding Cities.

     

    Vehicles (These are Singular Individual Sound Files)

    Bus (9 Files) – Close, Bys, Away, Brake Squeaks

    Cars (19 Files) – Close, Medium, Distant, Bys, Revs (Think less generic and more Engines with a lot of character)

    Freight (8 Files) – Close, Rattle Bys, Garbage Trucks

    Motorcycles (10 Files) – Close, Distant, Revs, Bys, Aways

    Truck (6 Files) – Low Bys, Aways

    Sirens (9 Files) – Close Medium, Wailers, some Fast Doppler Bys

    Horns (16 Files) – Close Medium

     

    Ambiences 

    Birds (2 Files) – Seagulls, Crows

    Construction (5 Files) – Larger Busy Worksites

    Public Places / Walla (9 Files) – Mostly Interior, Chinese Cafe, Library, Park, Street Vendors

    Traffic / Transportation / Urban (15 Files) – Parking Garage, City Fill, Traffic Bys, Under Bridge, Industrial

     

    Miscellaneous

    Helicopter (5 Files) – Circling and Bys

     

    Recording perspectives varied throughout this library.  Sometimes I had a full rig set up and other times I opted for the more stealth route with hidden mics attached to a backpack.
