SCENES
FROM THE MOVIE TITANIC
A wide
range of Jeremiah O'Brien Academy Award-winning sound effects
were also captured for Titanic ,
including metallic door closes, hatch openings, distant engine
rumbles (which run throughout the film, to give the sense
of movement), bells, clangs, etc.
The O'Brien
also was taken out into San Francisco Bay so Cameron's sound
team from Skywalker
Sound could capture a tremendous variety of bow wash,
mid-side wash, propeller wake, hull laps, and other water
movement sounds, which occupy much of the movie's first 11
reels before Titanic 's iceberg
collision. The O'Brien's crew even threw the engines into
full-reverse about 20 times, simulating the climactic iceberg
collision moment, which provided a wealth of creaks, groans,
distant rumbles, perspective shifts, and countless backgrounds
used to re-create the factory-like ambience of the steerage
compartment.
