Although most of you know my secret identity by now, I am going to ask this community to help me in my quest.
I have already done the audio posting (with my better half); music, FX and dialogue; for several animation shorts by my brother Pepe in Puerto Rico, one of them ("Ventana : La película"- it's on youtube) won 3rd place in the Karibukai Animation festival held last weekend in San Juan. It was a pleasant surprise for all of us, especially since one of the festival sponsors was Warner Bros.
For the mixdown of the 2 shorts, I decided to create a "faux" surround mix; placing a few elements(like the coquí) in the rears, but it wasn't very discrete...(duh!) since I got them in front and the rears(Hey, at least it's something).
What worked the best was having a short stereo delay panned hard L + R with both sides out of phase.
I tried using the "Stereo spread" and placing it OOP too, but it really didn't cut it..
Are there any of you who are willing to share a secret technique or give me any hints on how to do so?
Since these shorts will start to be broadcast sooner or later, it'd be a great asset for them to blasting out in Surround.
Saludos a todos.

edit: I mean faux surround that can be played back in DPL II movie or music setting.
