This was a fun short film shot in the summer of '24 in Bristol as a collaborative project with various talented colleagues from the BAFTA Connect scheme.
The premise of the film was to illustrate the main character's complete and utter loss of control and panic as she realised she had lost the most precious thing in her life, which we find out at the end of the film was to put it simply, her phone.
Discussions with the director led to the idea of the music channelling the experimental spirit of late-night 90s left-field television such as Brass Eye combined with the chaotic and unusual sound-world of the Safdie Brothers (Uncut Gems)
So I used a combination of analogue synths, foley sounds from the location of the film (traffic lights beeping, city centre ambience and footsteps) and various tape manipulation techniques to create a surreal, other-worldy feel to the score.
The music on this reel is the moment the character finds her phone and the feeling terms from panic to a kind of blissful utopian calm.
It was a pleasure working with all the team on it.
@chloe.kilby created the wonderful poster themed around a phone screen and was kind enough to adapt it and let me use it as the artwork for the EP too.
And the ever-wonderful and friendly team @nimrodsound very skillfully enhanced the production sound and provided a great dub mix.
