What does the world sound like?

I just finished the last of the foley and sound fx work for the film... so no more puppeteering wooden mannequins... no more twisting flashlight tops for head turning sounds... and no more wrestling with bicycle tubes for monster sounds... no more WHOOSH and no more foot steps...

It was fun to do the sound stuff... and since I did it.... I know that the world of HSM will sound like how I envisioned it... DARK, SCARY, desolate and fantastical...

On the sound design/sound fx tip I think I'm more influenced by the sounds of games like Resident Evil 4 and Silent Hill 4 than I am by films or animation...

Resident Evil 4 has to be my favorite game of all time... the sound design for the monster cinematics is AWESOME... they sound so HUGE and TERRIFYING...so thats what I went for with my monsters ^_^

I probably overdid it with the sound fx as it sounds fuckinG CrazY 0_0...... when I'm doing that work I mute all the other audio... I mute the dialog and music... I build up with sound design so that its totally filled out and awesome on its own... then I turn the dialog and music back on and remove distracting elements from the sound design...

So yeh we're wrapping up the film in the next 3 weeks... I have no idea what we're going to do with it when its done though 0_0

Knowing me I'll be all whatever maynE and start production on my next animated feature... since HEYYYYY imma finish those storyboards tomorrow ^_^

I just love to work... I just LOVE the process of making animated films... drinkin coffee... sketching characters... getting to work... its all GOOD ^_^

What format should I render out of Cinema 4d with?

UPDATED 2_27_13!  RENDER USING EXR Lossy Zip16! Since I'm working on a new feature film that will generate over 1500 shots made up of image sequences I need to make sure I choose the right file format to render to lest my hard drives explode. What I need from my format is  at least 16bit, an alpha included and preferably small size. I rendered out a frame from my film tallied up all the file sizes here- their all different types of codecs listed from smallest file size to largest. The render includes an RGBA pass, Depth pass, and Material Luminance pass because thats what I always render out. 1.00mb 8bit-Photo Jpeg %100 1.27mb 8bit-PNG 4.65mb 16bit- EXR lossy ZIP16 5.75mb 8bit-PSD 6.23mb 16bit-EXR lossy PLZ 6.44mb 16bit-PNG 7.94mb 8bit-TIFF 8.50mb 16bit-EXR Lossy 24 9.05mb 16bit-EXR Lossy Run Length 14.6mb 8bit-TARGA 22.4mb 32bit-EXR ZIP16 24.6mb 32bit-EXR Zip1 25.6mb 32bit-EXR PLZ 29.3mb 16bit-TIFF 29.3mb 16bit-PSD 40.0mb 32bit-EXR Run Length 58.7mb 16
