Document Archive: WC1 & 2 Sound Design Docs (August 11, 2013)

This collection of "The Fatman" George Sanger's files from Wing Commander I and II is especially interesting. It includes notes on the music itself and the contract issues that came up after the scope of the project became apparent!

I didn't know about the contractual misunderstandings with The Fat Man, but it's great that everyone seemed to resolve them graciously. Love The Fat Man's humour in his communications as well, such as his reference to Dave Govett on page 17.

Page 18/20 shows why visiting-Colonel-Halcyon could become the briefing room in WC2.

Reading through some of these tune descriptions had the songs coming to my mind even though I haven't heard them for a while!

Oh! (Typing as I read through this.) Looks like there's a bit of WC2 stuff towards the end as well. I thought this was all just WC1 for some reason. Hmm, fax communications... Even though I haven't been on the 'net for as long as many of you, it's still easy to take something as basic as e-mail communication for granted. It must have been interesting for Martin Galway and George to work on pieces together like this!
