This film was at the picture lock stage, foreign language and remote and with a very short completion date. I think I had three weeks to help get this over the line as the film was being entered into the Berlin International Film Festival and could not miss the submission date.
I was recommended by the supervising sound editor because I work well under pressure and maintain quality.
This film had many challenges, mainly due to the way it was (deliberately) filmed on location in Rwanda. The guerilla style filming meant that the location sounds were challenging to use and 90% of the foley had to be replaced and tracklayed. We worked well and got the film sounding as close to the realism, no Hollywood gloss, just as the director wanted.
