SYNOPSIS
The film lands us straight in the midst of things with no exposition. Frankie starts making a series of shocking confessions which threatens to strain their friendship to breaking point. His claims become more and more outlandish until we reach the unexpected conclusion.
SOUND DESIGN
With just two characters and one location, the film nevertheless had plenty room for sound design. Editor James Walker had already recorded some excellent foley and background walla sounds.
Our job was to EQ, mix and balance these so they became part of the fabric of the film.
As Mickey gets more and more stressed, we hear bodily sounds which subtly add to the comedy. We then introduce more overt sound design elements as the situation escalates.
