Better Homes and Gardens: Se7en Edition

Posted by: FincherFanatic
Sound on Sight revisits Fincher's iconic serial killer retreat, John Doe's apartment in "Se7en", in a holistic analysis of the camera work, sound design, set dressing — and just about everything else that made this sequence unbearably creepy.

Production design for this movie is nothing short of breathtaking, and Doe's notebooks, for instance, should more than attest to that. They were handwritten with ad lib serial killer blah by Fincher's design team, adding layer by layer to the film's texture and eerie depth.

Quite worth another visit:

    PS. I went to see Oblivion. Very decent Sci-Fi movie. Ren Klyce did a marvelous job on sound design ;)

    Fincher's section on RESET was updated with "Trails of Destruction" commercial (Nike Pro Combat). And if you click through the slideshow on the main page, you will find "Suit & Tie" video :)

    Disney's remake of the Jules Verne classic novel 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea has hit another snag. According to the Sydney Morning Herald, the studio has delayed production of the remake to 2014. Filming was slated to begin next month in Sydney. Last month, the Australian government earmarked $21.6 million for the movie to be shot in their country and claimed that it "would create 2,000 new jobs." It appears the delay is a casting issue brought about as a result of Brad Pitt passing on the lead role. The production has undergone several production pains since the remake was initially launched in 2009. Back then, McG was set to direct the film but has since given way to David Fincher, though there have been scheduling issues due to Fincher's packed slate...
