Killer 360 Sound Design.
The film brings the psychopathic killer right into your face. The sound was mixed and designed to be as real as possible. Each sound is perfectly placed and mapped to create a frighteningly realistic scene, whichever way your are looking. He may be behind you or right in your face. The spacial head tracking keeps you on the move even when you may not be able to see him, you’ll certainly be able to hear him.
Mixing 3D mulit-channel, virtual reality sound to a 360 Video brings the whole experience of VR to life. In a word, Audio Head Tracking enrols the user into believing they are really there and not just wearing a VR headset sitting on a chair.
The film’s spatial audio was mixed and sculptured at Syncbox Post in London and represents the dedication and excitement we have for this technology. So much can be created and enjoyed when you mix in 3D as opposed to 2D. Please get in touch with Rich Evans if you have any projects you would like to discuss.
