Astartes audio rework

18 or over, flashing images.

For this project, we reimagined the audio for Astartes, the acclaimed Warhammer 40K fan animation created by Syama Pedersen. The film’s intense visuals and minimal dialogue provided an ideal canvas for immersive sound design.

My collaborator, Tomaz Grab, composed the music score, while I focused on crafting the sound design. This project was very fulfilling, aligning with my passion for creating impactful audio experiences. I utilized ultrasonic microphones and EMF recorders to capture unique textures, which I then processed using plugins from Soundtoys, Waves, and iZotope. This approach allowed me to develop a soundscape and sind design that complements the film’s visual intensity.

Working on this project reinforced my interest in sound design for science fiction and action genres. It also provided an opportunity to experiment with unconventional recording techniques and effects processing, enhancing my skills in creating dynamic and engaging audio environments.
