13th Asian Conference on Media, Communication and Film, MediAsia (Kyoto, Japan)
Wesley Leon Aroozoo presented his academic research Exploring Dream Soundscapes in Cinema at the 13th Asian Conference on Media, Communication and Film, MediAsia (Kyoto, Japan) in October, 2022.
In Exploring Dream Soundscapes in Cinema, Wesley analysed familiar sound design conventions associated with creating soundscapes for dreams in cinematic language from films such as Hans Zimmer’s interpretation with Inception (2010). The discussion also dissected and identified aural elements, origins and associations of these conventions which include key sound design elements such as the use echoes, amplification and absence of diegetic sounds and atonal music. It concluded with a comprehensive summary before bringing forth the possibility of new approaches to creating soundscape for dreams.
