Transcript excerpt

I'm Lucas Vidal, a film composer of Madrid, and this is how I created the score for Apple's new immersive film, Real Madrid, The Weight of Greatness. I remember the first time I went to the Bernabeu when I was a kid, and I heard the fans singing. It was quite emotional for me, so I wanted to capture that feeling in the score. Most of the musicians are Real Madrid fans, and you can definitely feel it. One of the biggest superpowers of spatial audio is being able to ground the audience in the scene and making them less of a viewer and more of a participant. I'm Alex Worse, and I am the audio lead for Apple immersive video. As I mix, we can enable what is called head tracking. All the sounds move around me like they would in Vision Pro. It's very rewarding to be able to marry the realism of the fans with the actual energy that comes from the music. Better sound is designed to bring fans closer to to Real Madrid. I'm really proud of what we have done, and I can't wait for fans all over the world to experience it. Wow good.
