While the initial brief focused solely on sound design, I felt the addition of bespoke music would elevate the film's emotional impact. To achieve a perfect balance between sound effects (SFX) and music, stripping back the music created space for the sound design to breathe, especially during slow-motion sequences where the sound design takes center stage.
A Multifaceted Soundscape:
Aural Exploration: A 5-minute soundscape was created specifically for the exhibition space, featuring a lone warrior on horseback traversing the Siberian plains. This immersive soundscape played on a loop, transporting visitors to the heart of the Scythian world.
Cinematic Immersion: Furthermore, a 5.1 cinema trailer mix was created using stem exports by a licensed Dolby facility. This immersive soundscape further enhanced the project's cinematic quality.
