Salaryman - Jake Knight

Research for Sound Project - Salaryman 

The short film Salaryman by Jake Knight was a really key source in our research due to the concept of it and how the narrative is structured. For example it is all based around a businessman and what seems the endless routine of his everyday life. It really implies how the character is feeling and shows the audience what kind of life this man has through a sequence repeating itself and gaining speed until something as radical as for the character to get hurt changes his mundane and repetitive life. I like the short film because the sequences that are played throughout it really show the audience what kinda of person this character plays and how his life is portrayed. I like the idea of each sequence speeding up as it kept the audience interested in wanting to know what happenes when it gets to the end. For our idea I think we will use the idea of a sequence and use different speeds throughout our audio project. Things such as household appliances and a typical morning routine could be effective and engaging for the audience, they could also relate to it and then as fr as the second part of our audio project goes soundscapes of another sequence will be recorded.
