Sound design — every person, action and object

Dialogue & voice
  • Yusuf Nakamura — The edge of a map is a place. You can stand on it.
    Open-air lav, wind-screened, -23 LUFS
  • Ines Renn — Then stand on it and draw.
    Boom at 1.5m, no reflection
Foley — frame-matched to the render
Sextant
Brass arc slide with a fine detent click at every reading
Rolled map
Paper unroll with wind catch, corner snap
Canteen
Cork pull, swallow, a hollow ring as it empties
Walking staff
Point into hardpan then into soft sand, two distinct impacts
Boot laces
Leather pull-through and knot cinch in the sit-down
Ambience beds
  • • Broad daylight desert with high-frequency air shimmer
  • • Distant caravan bells
  • • Ridge wind, clean and steady
  • • Insect ticks in the scrub
Score

Solo oud and light percussion, brightening a semitone every time a new landmark is named

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
  • • Wind is modelled at the microphone, not added — it changes with the crane's exposure to the ridge
  • • No library loops on visible actions — each hit is cut to the frame it happens on
