A matinee of retro-futurist music, effects and graphics. Sky Captain and The World of Tomorrow is translated into an alternative narrative spectacle through a live re-score using original and plunderphonic sound created and found in response to the film.
For the first time, a bedroom boffin director captured actors in bluescreen studios and realised the visually overloaded locations entirely using CGI. Fittingly Granzon Nodo (cross-platform artists JEM NOBLE and DAVID HOPKINSON) perform a live audio re-dub by employing archive sound sources, re-processing and positioning the films soundscape, giving the film a playfully post-modern 3D sound score that heightens the excitement, allowing the audience to lose themselves in the filmÕs lavish style and fantasia.
Commissioned by LOVEBYTES for the LOVEBYTES FESTIVAL, Sheffield 2005.
