Sound design — every person, action and object
Dialogue & voice
- Ines Vance — There are eight carriages on this train.Boom, live corridor IR, -23 LUFS
- Tobias Lindqvist — Then who keeps closing the ninth door?Dry print with zero reverb, deliberately wrong
Foley — frame-matched to the render
Corridor floor
Runner carpet over timber, every third board hollow
Berth curtain
Ring slide with fabric weight, one curtain always half a beat late
Conductor's lamp
Handle squeak and a shutter slide
Gangway
Concertina flex between cars with a wind gust each time
Manifest
Paper turn with a pencil tick per carriage counted
Ambience beds
- • Sleeper rumble with a long corridor tail
- • Wind at the gangway
- • Passengers breathing behind curtains
- • A second rail rhythm, slightly out of phase
Score
Muted strings and a bowed saw, entering only in carriage nine, silent everywhere else
Mix- • 5.1 and binaural stereo folds rendered from one bed
- • Dialogue -23 LUFS, trailer master -14 LUFS, true peak -1 dBTP
- • Every element is placed from its on-screen position and tracked as the camera moves
- • Carriage nine has no room tone at all — every other space is convolved, that one is dead
- • No library loops on visible actions — each hit is cut to the frame it happens on
