Multiple trailer and cinematic productions
In trailers and cinematics, emotion does not begin at the final render. It starts much earlier, during the animatic, when rhythm, silence, and narrative intention are still being shaped.
Read about how we work alongside studios from these first stages, music and sound design begin to influence pacing, editorial timing, and emotional clarity from within the production itself.Instead of reacting to the image, audio becomes part of how the story is constructed.

Before Picture Lock
Trailer and cinematic audio works differently when it starts before the edit is finished.
Flutu develops music, sound design, dialogue and voice production against animatics and evolving cuts. That gives audio room to influence pacing while timing is still flexible, instead of trying to rescue every decision after picture lock.
Working From Animatics
An animatic is already enough to learn a lot.
A transition may need more time. A reveal may work better without music. A cut may need sound to carry momentum before the final animation exists. Those decisions are cheaper when the edit can still move.
Following Every Cut
As picture changes, audio has to change with it.
A new animation can make an old impact feel early. A shorter edit can break a musical phrase. Dialogue that worked against previs may need a different rhythm in the final shot. We keep rebuilding against the version the audience will actually see.
Decisions Before Deadline
Starting earlier does not remove revisions. It moves the useful revisions to a point where the team still has options.
Directors, editors and audio can react to the same work sooner. Fewer creative questions are left for the week when renders, approvals and delivery are all competing for the same hours.
Build the Arc
A trailer is not a pile of loud moments.
Music, dialogue, silence and sound design need somewhere to go. The job is to shape that movement early enough that the final mix can finish the idea instead of inventing it at the deadline.
