This was my first time I watched a documentary about designing sounds for a movie. I really like Denis idea that the sound should not be the last thing at the end of making a movie and instead should be a first class citizen! Sound can convey so many different emotions and feelings and thus its as important as everything else. Its really great that there was time for the team to experiment and design something new and at the same time relatable. I did't know the thought process behind sound can be so interesting! thanx so much!

I've worked on and been around some local films in my area and one thing I heard a sound mix engineer say that stuck with me is that sound can make or break a movie, even if its visuals are gorgeous. I've seen a bunch of local short films at festivals and there's been a few with killer visuals, costumes, acting, etc. but pretty badly mixed and lazily edited sound design, and it honestly ruined the immersion because the dialogue was hard to hear and the sounds were cheesy.

It blows my mind that sound design isn't conventionally an early part of the pre-production process in film.

I’ve read the books so I was extremely excited to see it visualized cinematically. Such a stunning movie to put it mildly. But wow, the sound team outdone themselves too. When I heard ‘the voice’ for the first time it made me physically flinch. Really gritty, insidious and powerful- perfectly portrays the ability of the voice and the Bene Gesserit. Hearing the team explain their decisions of sound design really shows the amount of effort and thought put into every scene.
