SPARK
FROM THE EARLY PAGES
He recorded the sounds of home.
A door closing. Rain on the roof. Someone calling from another room. Ishaan began keeping little recordings because they brought places back to him in a way that pictures alone never quite could.
A place has a voice. So do our memories.
A familiar voice can take you back faster than anything.

02 / FINDING A WAY
He started hearing the whole room.
As he learned to work with sound, he became interested in what sits around a voice: a breath, the room, a little laughter in the distance. Those details could make a recording feel present and personal.
A little practice. A different perspective.03 / THE WORK, AND THE CARE
Let the people be heard.
His part begins with a considered sound plan and continues in the edit. Voices, ambient recordings, and music are brought together with care so the film keeps its connection to the people who were there.
- Plan for meaningful voices
- Listen for atmosphere
- Shape the sound and music
