Seal Team Six

This is a soundscape for the beginning of an action game named "Seal Team Six".  The overall goal was to create a convincing environment and mood through the use of sound alone.  I was trying to convey a sense of confusion and danger.  The player is kidnapped and thrown into a van. Two thugs then drag him through a back room where he faces his captor, Mr. X.


Below is the script, effects list, and rough storyboard:
