Wanda Movie Park

Opened in 2015, Wanda Movie Park is China’s newest indoor theme park made up of interactive and 4D/5D rides. Star Journey is a 3D moving ride that seats 30 people in a "space ship" type simulator that give the feeling of extreme warp speeds and movement in space. The experience has several journeys that are randomly chosen, so that each time you ride you experience a different story. With over 2 years in the making, we took the project from conceptual design to full implementation of the sonic experience together with Pixomondo. We then created full orchestral scores and sound design utilizing a live 80 piece symphony orchestra, 40 person choir and specifically created sound foley for the main film, queue and pre-show areas. We were charged with creating the sounds of fictional space creatures that the world has never seen or heard before. Our onsite mix team then brought a full ProTools rig to the location mixing each space pod in 7.1 surround sound as well and various multi-speaker environmental queue and preshow areas which were meant to simulate a working space station.
