Then a small amount of flanger to add a metallic texture and slight movement. Ignoring the meter plugin, the first effect is a bit of high and low pass filtering to clear out stuff we don’t want to process. There’s quite a lot happening when you activate heat-vision but here’s just the effects chain. Here’s a clip showing the transition into Preda-vision and the processing – This chain processes everything the Hunter hears, and then the classic wipe, heartbeat, and vision drone accompany it.

I’ve learned an enormous amount about the franchise from studying the sound of all the films, and there are many details about the sound and music that I’d love to share, but for now, I’ll keep it focussed otherwise I’ll go on for ages.įor the heat vision processing, I analysed the source and figured out an effects chain to run in real-time. For Hunting Grounds, I wanted it to sound as authentic as possible to the original with only slight updates where appropriate. It’s arguably the most quotable action movie of all time! I’ve got the utmost respect for the original sound team and getting to work with the source for a second time (first was Aliens vs Predator 2010) was a huge honour. The original movie doesn’t need much of an intro it’s full of iconic moments and sounds. Predator: Hunting Grounds – Launch Trailer | PS4
