Sound design builds the world around the picture — environments, motion, transitions, impact, and detail that make scenes feel real. The best sound design supports story and performance without calling attention to itself.
Work may include cinematic environments, vehicles, transitions, and grounded detail that supports editorial intent and strengthens emotional beats.

Sound design works alongside dialogue editorial, ADR, and Foley, then is shaped into the final soundtrack during the mix. Good sound design also makes mixing more efficient by organizing intent and perspective early.
