Uploading has a very dark style, this is something that I have mentioned in my skills blog. In terms of the pre production process, trying to reflect the dark style in the sound design will be something I can achieve in the production and post production of the film.
In terms of an approach on set, I want to make sure that I get the cleanest sound possible, for example when Clinton will be chewing human faeces, I want to get really close in so that the sound is harsh and brutal. This is also something that I want to do when he is wretching and being sick. As this film is a very experimental piece I also want to try out a few experimental ideas on set, by doing this I think it could make the film feel more organic.
In terms of ideas for being experimental on set, I had the idea of attaching a microphone to the spoon that Clinton will be using, I would record this separately from the shot, I thought that this technique would be really good for getting up close and personal with the sound, so that you could really hear the chewing.
Post production is the biggest part for me when it comes to this film, with it being massively abstract we want it to be all pinned together by and electronic score. In our previous film Uploading we went with a very glitchy sound, this time we have decided that we it to be quite ambient and bassy, with a lot of dark industrial sounds. This is the point of production that I want to spend the most time on. A lot of inspiration for our sound will be taken from the likes of Clint Mansell and Trent Reznor.
