Drama Post-production - Sound Design

In conversation with Aaron, our sound designer extraordinaire, I have previously discussed the music used on the opening titles of Enter The Void. The song used is Freak by LFO - its chaotic, electronic sound is fairly unique, pumping out a fast rhythm that produces adrenaline in the listener and is perfectly complementary to the tone of the film.

We would like to consider this music when deciding on music for our own film; through the use of synths and MIDI controllers, coupled with the effects library of Soundtrack Pro, perhaps we can emulate the style demonstrated in the LFO track.

On the other hand it may well be, due to the emerging slow pace of our film, that a more ethereal and ambient score is required from start to finish. Experimentation will be key.



The music is inspiring for me, in that it conjures up a very distinct emotional response, that seems to enhance the introductory experience of Gaspar Noe's film, while as a standalone track it make an immediate impression through its intensity.
