V48Hr Film Fest 2013: Location Sound & Foley for team Club Palermo
Club Palermo contacted me this year and asked if I'd assist in the Sound Dept for their short film.
They got 'Immobilized' as a theme and spent friday night scripting a Hitchcock type thriller of a woman trapped inside a house. We met up on Saturday and headed out to Dr John's beautiful old style home on the Shore, which provided the perfect backdrop for the film.
I spent the day on location sound, capturing what I could in the confines of the house and also managing to sample odds and ends, such as creaky old rocking chairs, doors and ladders for use later on.
Shooting wrapped around midnight and after a few hours sleep, I headed into the studios to assist Marcel in soundscaping and the Foley work. We spent the day tailoring the sound as the other half the team started the B/W processing on the footage. The end result was pretty cool given the time restraints!!
It was a great project to be involved with and a huge thanks to Marcel for the invitation, and to Dr John and Bess for their awesome hospitality and the use of their amazing home.

A rainy day's Foley
After Guild plans to visit the Abandoned Freezing works fell through today, due to change in property managers, and me being all hyped up to record, it was time to do some Foley takes in the basement whilst the house was empty. Factory/construction/industrial type sounds were the go today and will form the basis of a sound backdrop for the intro to a track for a local band.
Big thanks to Drew for the lend of the Blofeld to enhance the atmosphere of the intro as well - dam thats a mean little synth!!
