Abstract
Every question you've had about your life in 8 minutes or less.
I have individually redesigned and recreated all sound (Foley, ADR, score) for a short film called “The Answers”, by Michael Goode and Daniel Lissing. The film tells the story of a recently deceased narrator questioning his life, and receiving answers in the form of flashbacks. I have also used my audio engineering skills to underscore an important issue, hearing loss. The audio has been filtered to highlight how people with hearing loss consume media and experience conversation. The project is presented as a single video file, with on-screen text highlighting the predetermined progression through the five stages of hearing loss (I.e. unaffected, mild, moderate, severe or profound).
