Tibetan drum

The Tibetan drum influenced the Water phone in nit only it's creation but also it's sounds and different pitches, it has kept true to it's inspirations yet also respected the traditional noises

I found this documentary very helpful while doing my research
for such a traditional piece of instrument it is very versatile

Water phone in depth research

http://www.waterphone.com/

The water phone is a beautiful instrument that produces stunning eerily spooky sounds and noises that would be perfect for horror films and thrillers

I may try to recreate similar noises with some objects around the house, I personally would buy a water phone but they are expensive as well as I am wanting to experiment with the idea of making similar noise and sound effects with different household objects

Jack Foley and Foley sound

Jack Foley perfected the art of sound recording and his techniques and legacy continues to live on to this day even after his death in 1965Even though Mr Foley was never in front of the camera or had his voice recorded, his progress and initiative during the early development of the film industry and it’s technique.

There is not a whole lot  that is known about Mr Foley or even many pictures of him, he was always the man behind the camera capture the perfect sound and practicing with the sound effects to make the projects especially when the essence of sound had been around longer than video capturing.

All of the information I could find on Jack Foley was from here http://filmsound.org/foley/jackfoley.htm
