Away Sound Effects

Away sound effects for anything leaving the scene. Sirens heading off into the distance, a diesel van pulling out, and wartime tanks and trucks driving off down the road. It's an approach played backwards. A good away runs long enough for the sound to shrink into the background, so the shot can hold after the vehicle has gone.

Vehicles tend to get recorded as a set of moves, and the away sits alongside the Approach and the pass-by. The vehicle libraries here follow that pattern, with idles and revs, then the drive away, so a scene can run from the Startup to the moment the vehicle disappears. The sirens were shot from different perspectives. An ambulance can leave from right beside the camera or from the far end of the street. The tanks and the cargo truck are wartime machines, which suits a convoy leaving a village or a column heading for the front.
