Whale Soundscape

Sound Design, Scoring, Audio

11.29.2022

In this project, I was challenged to create a dynamic soundscape for a still image of my choice. Scrolling through old images online, I found an unassuming photo of a waterpark ride that filled me with a strange feeling of discomfort and dread. I aimed to capture the eerie feeling that the image instills through audio, designing a narrative of splashes, drips, and mechanical clanking as you enter the gaping maw of the beast before you.

All sound design and scoring was done in Ableton Live using a combination of digital strings, synths, and free sound effects, all made to feel real in a tangible space through clever use of filters and effects.
