1976 by Aggressive
1976 meditates on presentiment and sound. The surreal short crafts an unsettling atmosphere of foreshadowing and immanent change. A clever combination of live footage and CGI, the film allows its soundtrack to drive the visuals. Everyday objects reverberate, twist and react to an oncoming pulse of events as they converge on a farmhouse lost in rural America.
A film by Aggressive, The Loop & Echoic.
Alex Topaller of Grammy Award-winning, New York-based director duo Aggressive talks about their atmospheric exploration of sound:
“The film meditates on presentiment and sound. It is a collaboration between myself and Dan Shapiro, Moscow-based art directors The Loop (aka Alex Mikhaylov and Max Chelyadnikov) and sound design studio Echoic’s David Johnston and Tom Gilbert. A combination of live footage and CGI, we intended the soundtrack to drive the visuals. Everyday objects reverberate, twist and react to an oncoming pulse of events as they converge on a farm house in rural America”
