Tonebenders Podcast – 272 – Longlegs:

Vancouver based Eugenio Battaglia joins us to go over his work as Supervising Sound Editor, Sound Designer and Re-Recording Mixer on Longlegs. The films amazingly successful theatrical run was fuelled by the unique sounds that drive this movie. Eugenio was instructed by director, Oz Perkins, that he wanted the film’s soundscape to feel like rock & roll, so the film is infused with subtle sounds of vinyl records, things going backwards, and a vibe of being gritty and unhinged. There are a lot of fun and interesting sound decisions in Longlegs, from unusually loud foley and breathing to the Heartbeat of Hell!
