Bachelor of Screen Arts

Throughout the year I had varying sound roles —Sound Recordist, Sound Designer, and Sound Mixer—on projects like Got The Spirit, In Her Steps, and my main focus, Flat Rat. Specializing in Post-Production Sound, Flat Rat became a crucial tool for honing skills to hopefully further achieve an industry-level understanding in this field. This is my first year exploring Surround Sound Mixing, where I really delved into spatialization and fold-down management.

Based on a true story, Flat Rat is a 11min dark comedy about three flatmates who have their bond tested when they’re pressured into killing a rat. This film tells a silly and grim story about friendship, social responsibility, and growing up. Through the laughs, we want to make you squirm, provide a sense of perspective, and remind everybody to find joy in the rat’s nest.
