The Making of the 80s Doctor Who Theme


 

I love Doctor Who. In fact, it may be my favorite Sci-Fi franchise of all time. Since I don’t live in the UK, however, I haven’t gotten a chance to see as many of the 80s episodes as I would like to…but via digg, I came across this great making-of video that shows us how the “modern” Doctor Who theme of the 80s was constructed. It’s amazing to me to think that I can do most of what they were doing with all of that equipment, with just my Macbook Pro. My, how the times have changed.

    Anyone know what he’s saying into the mic when “releasing the sound” from the box?
