Our latest adventure with our longtime client, Relative Scale and their partners 1220 Exhibits, HealyKohler Design, and Available Light, took us to Fort Campbell, KY to work on a very special exhibit for the Tennessee Wings of Liberty Museum, which opened to the public last week. The museum’s signature exhibit features an immersive flight experience aboard an MH-47 Chinook helicopter.

To ensure authenticity, we spent time last fall on the Fort Campbell tarmac recording the actual interior and exterior sounds of a Chinook in flight. We weren’t allowed to actually fly, but our equipment did while we stayed on the ground recording as the pilot put the helicopter through its paces.

Rather than using actors, we had actual pilots and crew from Fort Campbell record their voices for a truly authentic experience. For the sound installation, we returned to the museum earlier this year to perform the final mix on location, inside the exhibit itself, helping ensure the experience felt as real and immersive as possible.

Here is an article about the opening of the museum...

It’s designed to be useful, practical, and full of real-world insight.

This session is just the beginning of what we hope will be an ongoing partnership with Stage 32 and Trailblazer Studios, with future webinars that take deeper dives into various areas of post production.
