IMAGE FILM / SHORT FILM

An image film like a short film:
The Lounge.

For the VIP Services of Frankfurt Airport, Mayk Azzato shot "The Lounge" in 2017, an image film in the style of an art house short, with Ralf Bauer and Ray Stevenson. Mayk commissioned us directly. We treated the sound like a feature film: music, sound design, dialogue editing and mixing.

The challenge

Not an ad,
a film.

The Lounge does not list products, it tells a story with actors. There is no voice-over, everything runs through image, dialogue and atmosphere.

So the sound had to work like a short film: dialogue that carries, a space you can hear, and music that leads the mood.

Our part

Sound post-production
like cinema.

Mayk commissioned us directly. The sound was ours:

01

Music

Music for the film, our own production plus carefully integrated third-party productions.

02

Dialogue editing

Dialogue edited and processed, as in a film's sound post-production.

03

Sound design

Atmospheres and sounds that make the lounge and the airport audible.

04

Mixing

Dialogue, music and sound design mixed into the finished film.

The result

A premiere
on the apron.

In March 2017 The Lounge premiered right at Frankfurt Airport, between the aircraft on the apron (rheinmaintv). In 2018 the film received the Special Jury Award at WorldFest-Houston (maykazzato.de).

FAQ

Questions about sound
for image films.

The sound follows the rules of film: dialogue editing, atmospheres, music and a mix that carries scenes rather than pushing messages. More on film sound and post-production.

Yes. As with The Lounge, we integrate third-party productions and add our own music so everything sounds of a piece.

It depends on length, amount of dialogue, music and usage rights. You receive a quote in advance.
