Project: Tribute to Rene
Client: flipEvil
Music and Sound Design: Box of Toys Audio

Background:
We joined forces with our friend flipEvil (flipevil.com) to create this composition in tribute to the Belgian surrealist artist, Rene Magritte.

Approach:
Given the context we wanted to take a very traditional and unadorned route, and so composed a bespoke piano piece in and around the motion. The piano leads the way in terms of pace and characterization, backed by subtle sound design that reinforces the dream-like state of the visuals.

    I'm missing the steam billowing from the locomotive of 'La Durée Poignardée'. Other than that an incredible video. Both the visuals and the music. I especially love the scene transition at 0:50.
