Firstly, we had to select the best options out of all the pieces that we had recorded. Some sounds didn't work because they were too rhythmic or not in the adequate pace. Also, some of them did not sound natural because of the materials that we had used (e.g. a table instead of the floor, or the bed without the pertinent mattress). The sound of the boots came across as horses trotting and, no matter how we arranged them, they ended up resembling fireworks rather than human movement. However, the lip sync —the most important part— was proficient and matched perfectly with the footage that we already had.
The room sound was barely audible, but the door creak and the opening and closing of furniture, as well as the gasps and movements —except for the mentioned footsteps— worked. What we need to do now is set the levels of each sound to stop getting the screams in the other rooms louder than the actual conversation we are witnessing in front of us, among other things. Matt also needs to teach us how to apply the reverb to the whole audio file, which is what basically makes all the sounds match and come across as being in the same space rather than isolated.
