Hi Sabyasachi,
I agree with Jaz. Viewers will have much more interest in the film if soun=
d is well done and natural sound is definitely more appealing. Most films a=
dd sounds later on. I am not sure, but if the sound is captured when human =
activities are low like early morning or way down in the forest closed to t=
he sound etc. and add it to the film. Just a suggestion, what I am saying m=
ight not be practical. As a viewer, the film gives me completely different =
message with the music. What I like about the film is you have done a great=
job capturing the video of something nobody has done before. Love it.
Munir.
