From Field Recording to Abstract Texture: Granular Synthesis in the Creation of Cinematic Drones.
Analyzing why sustained, low-pitched sounds (drones) trigger anxiety or a sense of "impending doom" in viewers. This paper could use the Outland library as a case study for "chilling suspense". Outland: atmosfere cinematografiche e droni [WAV]

If you'd like to develop one of these further, I can provide: Audiovisual Convergence (UAVs and Soundscapes) A study on
Investigating the use of tools like Vital or Kontakt to reshape sound files into everything from "ethereal pads" to "percussive pulses". 3. Audiovisual Convergence (UAVs and Soundscapes)
A study on how drone footage is rendered "cinematic" by stripping away the distracting high-pitched mechanical noise of the propellers and replacing it with curated SFX like wind or urban drones.
Comparing the Y2K-era "ominous drone" with contemporary high-resolution (48 kHz) cinematic scoring techniques.
