1 Sound Logic

When beginning your sound design process, start by breaking down the script logically. Identify the environmental sounds that must be present to support the setting. For instance, if a scene is set in a bustling city, you'll need a tapestry of background noises that reflect that environment. Logical reasoning dictates that these sounds should vary throughout the day; morning traffic sounds different from late-night city life. This attention to detail will create an authentic soundscape that viewers subconsciously recognize as true to life.

El paisaje sonoro urbano, tiene sentido cultural El paisaje sonoro urbano es una parte importante de la cultura de una ciudad. Los sonidos que se escuchan en las calles, plazas y edificios nos dan una idea de la vida y la actividad que ocurre en ese lugar. Desde el bullicio del tráfico hasta el murmullo de las conversaciones en los cafés, cada ciudad tiene su propio paisaje sonoro único. Los diferentes tipos de música, los idiomas que se hablan y los ruidos característicos de cada lugar nos ofrecen una experiencia sensorial que forma parte de la identidad cultural de la ciudad. Estos sonidos reflejan las costumbres, tradiciones e incluso el estado emocional del lugar.

I noticed I often think I know what something sounds like (like a noisy street) but I always find it helpful to actually go out there and record and listen and use that as a reference espilecially when layering sounds from libraries. I feel like I (and probably others as well) have sometimes a tendency to overcrowd a soundscape instead of focusing on the main characteristic elements.

2 Character Cues

Characters in film are defined not just by their dialogue but also by their interactions with the world around them. Logical reasoning comes into play when you consider each character's unique sound profile. A character with a heavy, deliberate walk might have deeper, more resonant footstep sounds than a character who is light on their feet. Think about how personal items, like keys or jewelry, would sound when the character moves. These subtle cues can provide depth to a character and are crucial in post-production sound editing.

I worked on a game and we decided to use different footstep samples for the main character depending on how much health he has. So when the character has low health, the footsteps get draggy and heavier. We felt like it added nice depth to the character while also providing another way to inform the player about the health status apart from the HUD.

3 Scene Dynamics

Each scene in a film has its own rhythm and pacing, which should be mirrored in your sound design. Use logical reasoning to determine the dynamics of sound within a scene. For example, in a tense confrontation, the absence of background noise can heighten the drama. Conversely, a chaotic action sequence might require a dense mix of sounds to convey the intensity of the moment. The logical arrangement of these sounds will guide the audience's emotions and expectations.

4 Emotional Resonance

Emotional resonance is where sound design can truly shine by using logical reasoning. Consider how different sounds can elicit specific emotions. The sound of rain against a window can be soothing or melancholic, depending on the context of the scene. A distant train horn might evoke feelings of departure or longing. By logically selecting and layering sounds that align with the film's emotional beats, you can craft a powerful auditory experience that resonates with viewers.

5 Technical Harmony

In post-production, it's essential to achieve technical harmony between dialogue, music, and sound effects. Logical reasoning ensures that no element overpowers another unless intentionally designed that way for effect. Balance is key; for instance, dialogue should be clear and audible over background noise. Sound effects should complement, not distract from, the scene. By methodically adjusting levels and EQ (equalization), you create a harmonious soundscape that supports the visual narrative.

It's also good to know you can break those rules (once you know how to follow them of course) to achieve a very specific emotional impact. Probably everyone is familiar with a cliché of a high tinitus sound following an explosion and all the dialogue and sounds are muffled. This can be also done with music - completely overpowering sound design and dialogue to drown the audience in a certain emotional soundscape. There are many great examples in both movies and video games.

6 Creative Collaboration

Lastly, collaboration is vital in the post-production phase. Engage with your team using logical reasoning to debate and decide on the best sound choices for each scene. Directors, editors, and sound designers should communicate openly to ensure that the film's audio enhances the story logically and creatively. This collective approach to sound design and post-production ensures that every decision is made with a clear understanding of the film's overall vision and narrative goals.
