Synopsis
A swimming pool in town. Swimmers and fish are all mixed up. Above and below the surface, the water writhes and the breathing rushes. Ordinary and singular moments in the swimming pools of Paris. The film shows the daily routine of a fantasy pool, both unique and multiple. The sound design contributes to this off-beat narrative of these aquatic public places.
About : Sound Writing in Documentary
The workshop is conducted in French, so a certain level of proficiency in the language is required to fully benefit from the training.
If you do not speak French, keep an eye on workshops organized abroad, by following our news
"In filmmaking, who comprehensively designs the sound form of a film throughout its production stages? In academia, we often analyze the technical conditions of sound existence and aim to produce 'good sound'—sound that meets standards. However, sound, like visuals, is equally capable of creation and invention. Documentary filmmaking provides fertile ground for experiments that can restore autonomy to sound from its very conception and writing."
Daniel Deshays, in "Listening to Cinema"
This workshop on sound production, led by Daniel Deshays, is aimed at those interested in exploring documentary film through its sound form.
