Sound design takes the audio post process to a more creative level. Where the former is done to make a project technically and aesthetically correct, in sound design we are given the creative freedom to invent what a scene might sound like. It's like comparing fighter planes in "Pearl Harbor" and tie-fighters in "Star Wars". Though they both had great sound, the mythical tie-fighters required more creativity.

The ProTools systems we use give us all the tools we need to make sound we capture fit a scene exactly as we imagine it. From bending and blending sound effects to perfecting the dialogue and music tracks.

In a scene from "Descansos" featuring Charles Durning we had to eliminate the roaring sound of air conditioners in an old hotel lobby while retaining the dialogue (Mr. Durning wasn't available for ADR), then we literally opened the lobby up to the universe. Click to
