Hellgi 0 Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 Hey there,I was in London two weeks ago for a recording with William Ross for the movie "Our Lady of Victory." We went to record at Abbey Road, in Studio One, where so many amazing film scores have been recorded (including some Harry Potter, Star wars V, VI, I, II and III, Raiders of the Lost Ark, Lord of the Rings, etc.).My wife took a lot of pictures and I've posted them online. I thought maybe that could be of interest to some of you so I figured I'd let you know Here's the link to the gallery.Enjoy and please do not hesitate to ask if you have questions Hellgips. I just realized that, for some reason, the picture quality is not excellent while watching the slideshow on high resolution displays. You can download the picture to your hard drive and it will display fine that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don't mind me asking, what do you do? Are you a composer? producer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hellgi 0 Posted March 18, 2008 Author Share Posted March 18, 2008 I'm William Ross' "assistant". On that particular movie, I was also orchestrator as well as score coordinator.Other duties during the session included running Auricle, taking notes and giving specific musical notes to Bill (who, because of the nature of the project, didn't have the time to come in the booth to check the cues).

Henry B 50 Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 Ah, so THAT'S how you knew all that stuff regarding Chamber of Secrets! OR IS HELLGI JUST A ROBOT POSING AS ROSS'S ASSISTANT? Is he trying to cover up for the fact that Williams in fact wrote all of Chamber of Secrets? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ray Barnsbury 8 Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 I gotta say, what you do is pretty awesome. Great pics! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hellgi 0 Posted March 18, 2008 Author Share Posted March 18, 2008 Yes, it was awesome... the room is really amazing... it has a natural ±3 sec. reverb, you don't need to "add" anything to the sound, it's already perfect.And the players were absolutely fantastic. (Duh!) I was so amazed for the first two or three cues, I couldn't do my job right... I was supposed to listen carefully for mistakes and suggest things to improve, but everything sounded fabulous!

Hitch 57 Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 Great quality pics at this side. Thanks for posting them. Steef and I got as far as outside the walls of Abbey Road Studios.
