Movement sits at the forefront of my sound designs for theatre and dance. My practices involve spatially moving sound in a theatre to create a change in space, to direct an audience's attention, and to respond to a controlled set of movement like choreography. I will demonstrate how my cueing process considers movement and how I respond to random variables that affect time and spatial trajectories. This thesis highlights my process, including the use of spatial audio, musical compositions for choreography, and designing in unconventional environments that involve movement. Example use cases include traditional and non-traditional theatrical productions, original music compositions, diegetic use of sound foley props, and dynamic cueing systems.
