Song Zu handled the sound design, composition and licencing, while&#13;<br \/>\ncreative and production was by the Spinifex Group, for the two films produced&#13;<br \/>\nto showcase the new model in North America.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Motor enthusiasts around the world had been&#13;<br \/>\neagerly awaiting the launch of the seventh generation Nissan Z for months.&#13;<br \/>\nHowever, due to challenges brought on by the pandemic, no large-scale unveiling&#13;<br \/>\ncould take place to reveal the car. Instead, two films were created to&#13;<br \/>\ndemonstrate the vehicle&#8217;s capabilities with Song Zu&#8217;s own former professional&#13;<br \/>\nrace car driver turned Sound Designer Simon Kane tasked with crafting a sound&#13;<br \/>\nthat accurately represents the sound of the car driving through suburban and&#13;<br \/>\nurban streets.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;My approach was to bring to life the two&#13;<br \/>\npersonalities in the Nissan Z Escape spot; a car that you can drive to the&#13;<br \/>\nshops or on the race track,&#8221; said Simon Kane, Head of Sound at Song Zu. &#8220;I used&#13;<br \/>\nsofter sounds during the slower suburban scenes with the yellow car to make it&#13;<br \/>\nfeel more sophisticated, but at the same time playing Lindsay Jehan&#8217;s (Song Zu&#13;<br \/>\nComposer) music underneath to invoke an edginess that is telling you &#8211; there&#8217;s&#13;<br \/>\nmore than meets the eye. With the blue car, I used harsher, more aggressive&#13;<br \/>\nengine sounds, cinematic impacts and fast cuts that let you know just how&#13;<br \/>\nintense this car can be.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Since the Nissan Z was unveiled on August 17,&#13;<br \/>\n2021 and the ads launched across multiple online verticals, the response from&#13;<br \/>\nmotor enthusiasts around the world has been overwhelmingly positive. The two&#13;<br \/>\nvideos can be viewed <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=80SpWLHQCb4\">here<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/vimeo.com\/596916595\">here<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Song Zu was acquired by Songtradr, the world&#8217;s&#13;<br \/>\nlargest music licensing ecosystem, in March 2021. Song Zu works in all areas of&#13;<br \/>\nsonic branding, including soundtracks for advertisements on TV and radio,&#13;<br \/>\nonline content, VR and installation spaces.
