Q:
Tell me more about creature design.
A: The monsters are vital to the movie's plot,
and they all are related to the main character in one form or another.
I tried my best to put on-screen what was originally in my head,
with a few exceptions due to my limitations. You can find these
creatures in the Cast section of the website.
Q:
The sound is familiar.
A: Most of it is ripped from the Silent Hill games,
and the music is from the Silent Hill soundtracks. A lot of sounds
are edited with a program I have called GoldWave, and others are
simply royalty free that you can find anywhere on the net. I suggest
you experience the movie with good headphones and the sound turned
up to fully appreciate the sound design that the Silent Hill team
had accomplished with their franchise.
Q:
How long does it take to render a shot?
A: A four second shot, rendered in multiple passes
(to keep my PC from blowing up), takes roughly a total of 5 to 6
hours. Some shots took up to 24 hours due to their complexity! Of
course, there are exceptions. I usually just left my PC running
all day and night to keep the work process flowing smoothly.
