Oliver Holms desire to make a short film on Sound Design was borne from the affliction he felt every time he came across tiresome and incredible work that was always invisible to the public.

O sound designer, ou “foley artist”, tem a responsabilidade de fazer pelos seus ouvidos o que os cineastas fazem pelos seus olhos. O trabalho é minucioso e tem a responsabilidade de harmonizar cada cena com a sensação desejada a ser passada para o espectador.

This profession gained more visibility at the end of the 70s, when the Hollywood movie industry cast aside the traditional production methods and took a head first dive into new forms of design.
