FAQ About The Influence of Animation Sound Design

How is sound design in animation different from live-action sound design?
Sound design in animation differs from live-action primarily in the lack of naturally occurring sounds during production. Animators rely entirely on created sound effects, voiceovers, and music to establish audio elements. This requires greater creativity and planning since every sound must be designed from scratch to align perfectly with the animated visuals, while live-action films often capture audio on set.
