Surround Sound, Dark Saber

February 6, 2022

Mapped surround-sound angles while nitpicking famous film mistakes. Ended the day praising Boba Fett lighting, lore, and ship design

I love this playlist top 50 US.

I'm using Spotify mobile application that is shuffling on random.

I connected my phone through smart viewer to my big TV that I use as a speaker.

Given the set location, I think that, spatial sound awareness, surround sound, it is valuable.

Usually, film makers are lazy. It doesn't matter.

For me, if I were Quentin, for instance, in Pulp Fiction, do you remember, that scene, when Jules Winnfield / Samuel L Jackson, he shoots that guy who says What, then later onwards, in the movie, the guy Vincent Vega / John Travolta shoots by mistake, Alvin, or Marvin, that guy jumps out of the room and shoots at them?

The guy, Marvin, the gun shots, it would come from a different angle, so, the audience feels it, as though, it is very real, very visceral--hopefully disorientatingly!

See, it's placement, Quentin is lazy, as a big goof was that the bullet holes on the plaster wall were already made before Marvin shoots at them with a revolver, even Chandran Rutnam's associate Francis Ford Coppola was quite lazy, in The Godfather, the dirty cop that Michael Corleone/ Al Pacino shoots, he has a bullet hole in his forehead, before he is shot and there is a blood spray mist that erupts--

Placement, as in positioning. These guys, holding the boom sticks, they are also lazy. It's not cool. But that's the industry standard. They record unidirectionally, as those boom sticks only hear one thing or one input audio source. Even so, you can put

Let's say if there are 7.1 channels or 7.2

So, I guess, 7.2 channels?

2 x subwoofers are the 2 in 7.2, so, they can play some kind of music, usually, the soundtrack, music on a radio in torture scene in Reservoir Dogs, any music, typically, it is on stereo mode.

So, the subwoofers can be used for that, to replicate, mirror or represent the music, that can alter in volume, when the camera is closer or farther away.

The 7.0 channels,

this is the 360 degrees in surround sound

I don't know any of this s*** by the way

I am making it all up as I go along

Main:

1. Boomstick Actor 1 [ 0 degrees / 12 o clock]

2. Actor 2 [ 90 degrees / 3 o clock]

3. Actor 3 [ 180 degrees / 6 o clock, which will likely, be available at 4/5 or 7/8 o clock ]

4. Environment / Traffic / Car Moving by [ 7 o clock move to speaker 5 / 8 o clock ?, then 6 / 11 o clock?] ,

5. Clarify Dialogue / Simulate set environment

Extra:

6. Simulates more environmental sounds

7. Add resonance to 1, 2, 3 channel

Advanced:

8. Amplify jump scare

9. Surprise sound / low footstep treble

I used to have Tidal, which Jay Z was doing, it had good audio quality -- back in Singapore 2012 or so.

It wasn't that good, high fidelity audio, I honestly, couldn't tell the difference.

I think these songs are 320 kbps.

Spotify is 24 (low quality), 96 (normal/ regular), 160 (high) and 320 (very high) kbps.

I have a bad habit of cranking the volume on my tv to 100 and then also on my phone, so it's very loud.

I know I can go deaf, so, I reduce it, now, by forcing myself, although I love it on full blast.

I like this popular music, people have good taste.

Everyone reads my Captain's Log for instance!

Or maybe, people have bad taste.

Hmm

I was also thinking, Mando, who I was sad to be plot spoiled into learning is Din Djarin, I guess the D is silent like in Django, Mando -- umm, it's not exactly a good look to have a spear and a dark lightsaber and also a rifle and a jetpack and a missile.

So, it's good he's re-purposing this beskar spear.

The image depicts a dramatic scene from a science fiction setting, likely a space battle involving explosions and spacecraft. A series of fiery explosions are scattered across a desolate landscape, illuminating the scene with intense orange and yellow hues. In the foreground and background, several dark, bat-shaped spacecraft are flying amidst the chaos, suggesting an ongoing conflict. The lighting is intense, casting a warm glow across the entire scene, emphasizing the destructive nature of the explosions. The caption at the bottom of the image reads, "Eventually, the Imperial interlopers destroyed," hinting at a narrative involving an imperial force. This portrayal of destruction and warfare creates a tense and dramatic mood, typical of space opera genres. The image style suggests a computer-generated or cinematic medium, capturing the grandeur and intensity of a large-scale intergalactic battle.

The cinematography is brilliant, I love the lighting, it is learnedly reminiscent of the clever, appropriate and real lighting used during the bombing in Dune.

I think the directors of photography are in fact, members of the ASC.

Terminator 2 Theme

In this screenshot from "The Book of Boba Fett" Season 1, Episode 5, two characters are engaged in action. One character, known as the Armorer, is speaking, with the subtitle displaying the word "Solus." Both characters are wearing Mandalorian armor, which is distinctive for its sleek, metallic look. The foreground features a narrow walkway suspended in a dimly lit, industrial setting, suggesting a scene filled with tension and confrontation. The lighting is low, casting shadows that enhance the scene's dramatic atmosphere. The Armorer's helmet is adorned with horns, a signature element of the character's attire in the Star Wars universe. The background is filled with metallic structures and dim lights, typical of a sci-fi industrial environment. The medium is a live-action scene within a science fiction TV series, emphasizing themes of honor and combat associated with the Mandalorian culture.

The image is an illustration of a flag, prominently featuring a stylized golden lion holding a sword on a rich red background. The lion is crowned, symbolizing authority and power, and is depicted in a dynamic pose, suggesting movement and strength. Surrounding the lion are four golden bo leaves, which are significant in certain cultures for their religious and cultural symbolism. The flag's border is yellow, creating a striking contrast with the red backdrop and enhancing the visual impact of the lion emblem. The illustration style is bold and graphic, employing strong lines and solid colors to convey a sense of heritage and identity. The composition is symmetrical, with the lion centrally positioned, emphasizing its importance as the focal point. This design is often associated with national pride and historical significance, suggesting a deep connection to a cultural or national identity.

The image is a screenshot from "The Book of Boba Fett," specifically season 1, episode 5, as indicated by the title text in the VLC media player window. The scene takes place in a dimly lit workshop, featuring a partially assembled spacecraft that resembles a Naboo N-1 Starfighter. A character, possibly a mechanic, is working on the ship, assisted by a mechanical droid. Another individual, wearing dark armor typical of the Star Wars universe, stands nearby, observing the process. The lighting is moody, with shadows and focused light highlighting the spacecraft's metallic surfaces. The workshop is cluttered with various tools and equipment in the background. The subtitle reads, "Just get it right there. No, closer to me," indicating a precise task being carried out. The overall atmosphere suggests a scene focused on repair or modification, common in the Star Wars series.

These are beautiful space ships designed by Disney. Very beautiful, marvellous designs.

1) The screenshot captures a scene from the episode titled "The Book of Boba Fett S01E05," viewed using VLC media player. In an indoor setting, the image shows two characters engaged in conversation. On the left, a person with curly hair sits slightly forward, gesturing with their hands, suggesting engagement or explanation. On the right, a character in black Mandalorian armor holds a weapon. This armor is iconic within the Star Wars universe, reflecting the character's affiliation and role. The lighting is dim, creating a dramatic, sci-fi atmosphere typical of the series. The background reveals a workshop-like environment with machinery, reinforcing the setting's industrial feel. Subtitles at the bottom read, "Ever since they've been moving spice through the system," indicating dialogue related to storyline themes of trade or smuggling. The display features typical VLC interface elements, like the title at the top and playback controls at the bottom, confirming the media player being used.

I used to, when I was real small, I had Windows Vista or XP, or something, and I had this F22 Raptor screen saver, I took it off after John McCain, who got shot down and was captured as a POW, he exposed how the budget is too high or wasteful for F22s and also, more importantly, they didn't eff up or catch Ironman.

My doubts on the F35 only began when they could not kill punchy, palooka Butch Coolidge in Die Hard.

I love this uniform on Luke Skywalker in The Book of Boba Fett season 01 episode 06.

I think, our own firm's futuristic uniforms, we are inspired by Halo UNSC uniforms, the Star Trek uniforms, Star Wars officers, and this one worn by Luke!

"Command Division"

1. Lehan -- I will get a black robe like this one as my uniform. I want to go for black color. I don't mind white or red. Or blue. But I want to go for this Luke's robe, I call dibs as of 12:30 a.m. on (Monday) February 7th, 2022.

I also call shotgun, on my security team wearing the Storm Trooper uniforms and playing Imperial March whenever I am to enter a room or area of operations.

2. Jonathan will get something he wants, probably with a hood to cover his face, like the Anonymous people, the Guy Fawkes look. I think he can go for that, Emperor Palpatine Hood, or else, a Orson Callan Krennic white color. He can even go for the Star Trek or Halo, whatever. I recommend he go with White or Blue color. Or grey!

3. Jacques, he can have the Protocols of the Elders of Zion secret Moloch Bohemian Grove Illuminati red uniform that's been popularized by Alex Jones.

4. Thilanga uncle -- Sri Lankan National Dress, Pinstripe Suit and Tie is also perfect!

"Operations Division"

5. Robert Bigman -- [Details removed for security reasons]

6. Nanda, he can have the Sinhalese uniform.

7. Denzil can have the general uniform or something. I don't know, they can decide independently.

8. Charith, I don't know. Up to him.

9. Sanjeeva, I don't know. Up to him!

"Sciences Division"

10. Imtiyaz -- Arab uniform. Copy Prince Salman!

The Force is very weak in Pauline.

She's not a killer.

So, I had to drag Alex Marsh to play Star Wars.

The others, Liu, he is a guy, but he didn't play FPS types. Risa Riyanto or whatever, she wanted to play Fifa, which I only bought because of her, but decided it was so boring I couldn't do it. The rest also didn't play.

I was the only normal kid in the entire building, the entire student accommodation.

Pauline is okay, she likes David Bowie, and she tried to hook me up with the two Indian receptionists.

It's fine.

Whatever.

I have decided, in my infinite wisdom, and my good, gracious compassion, that, she will get me champagne, french wines, cheese, fashion stuff, perfume, Famas rifles, Le Clerc tanks, whatever Rafale does, and also United Nations Animal Rights Council votes.

Also, JCDecaux, this and that, a lotta French stuff.
