200 - Triangle of Sadness Nov 03, 2022

Show notes

Andreas Franck and Bent Holm join us to talk about their work as Supervising Sound Editors and Re-Recording Mixers on director Ruben Östlund's amazing new film - Triangle of Sadness. They tell us about how they used sound to juxtapose expected emotions and add lots of humour. A major scene in the film involves a yacht caught in a massive destructive storm, but we never see an exterior shot, leaving the sound to carry the heavy load of conveying the power of the weather outside. This is a fun talk. Show Notes: https://tonebenderspodcast.com/200---triangle-of-sadness Podcast Homepage: https://tonebenderspodcast.com
