Exercise 8: Sound design
What sounds will be heard in your land?
Exercise 8: Sound design
Activity: To help bring your land to life you will need various layers of sound. In this activity you will need to find, create or describe at least three different sounds:
- soundscape (a constant background sound such as rain or ocean waves)
- music (a song which reflects your land)
- sound effects (randomly occurring sounds such as a lion roar or lighting strike)

is a fairy giggle a sound effect?(23 votes)
My world is Marvel (mostly Spider-man), and for the S.H.I.E.L.D building the music would be creepy and edgy. The music for the Hulk roller coaster would be wild and crazy, just like he is. The music for the Spider-man rides would probably be some twist on the famous Spider-man theme song and the Venom ride would probably be a deranged version of that(16 votes)
