Initially, a soundscape was designed to bring this sea story to life. However, alongside the much needed SFX, the project seemed to offer a good opportunity to create and play with a musical narrative. This helps explore the right emotions and excitement for the unfolding story.

Enhancing the sea theme musically was achieved using accordions and a hang drum for the rhythmic percussion. This is supplemented with solo parts from woodwinds, brass and a harp instruments. The sailer is voiced by myself using some subtle effects and various takes. The SFX combines a mixture of realism for the ambiences and cartoon style sounds to keep the aesthetic playful and fun.
