In just 8 short weeks, SAM was asked to create the music and sound for a fully immersive cyberpunk world including a dark ride, sensory technology experience, ride queues, gallery, and social spaces.
Attractions Technology Lab (ATL) is a week-long immersive experience that takes place each year in Orlando, FL showcasing the latest innovations in themed entertainment. Clientele include top creatives and producers from leading entertainment companies including Disney and Universal Studios.
SAM created original music, sound effects, and atmospheric audio to support the cyberpunk world of ATL while helping to move visitors throughout the experience. In addition to the 8-week timeframe, SAM’s solution had to integrate into an open warehouse floorplan with limited audio separation.
SAM created a seamless audio experience and controlled noise bleed by developing 7 unique audio zones each timed to a master loop. Each zone was highlighted by different musical elements and instrumentation, all scored to a constant theme. This gave each zone a distinct feel, while creating natural transitions. SAM further used HOLOPLOT audio beams - featured in Sphere, Las Vegas - to add unique sonic “easter eggs” as visitors moved throughout the space. Finally, SAM worked with Alcorn McBride and Theme Park AV to automatically decrease audio volume in adjacent spaces while rides were in progress.
It all added up to over 230 tracks, 52 minutes of music, and 1 thrilling cyberpunk adventure.
Creating the ATL experience took collaboration from 21 partners working on everything from concepts to storyboards, video and animation, music and sound, lighting, screens and displays, animatronics, ride car development, programming and control, site planning, speaker placement, staging, catering, and the list goes on and on. Special thanks goes out to all of our partners who made ATL a reality:
Quince Imaging, 4Wall Entertainment, Alcorn McBride, Garner Holt Productions, Christie, Oceaneering, Weigl Control, Fivestone Studios, Goodtheory Studios, Powersoft, HOLOPLOT, Theme Park AV, Interamerica Stage Inc., Lightswitch, Q-Sys, Strong MDI Screens, Practical Imagination, Redd Ash Tech, eaiHaptics, and Image Engineering.
