Hello Folks! 🤩

Here is a new Sound Design (redesign) project I made for John Wick 3! 🤜🔪🤛

For me 2024 is a particularly import year and I chose this 1 min long “Knife Fight” scene to set the mood. It’s fight on ! 🧨

This was a tough challenge and I had to experiment a lot to make it sound “larger-than-life” and find the credibility, variety and dynamism required to match with the unforgiving John Wick’s universe!

As I avoid watching anything related to the original scene, while working on a sound redesign project, I drew inspiration from movies like Batman The Dark Knight, The Matrix and Westside Story musical. All of which helped me build the character, dynamism and texture of this complex fight scene! 

A big round of applaud for Timothy Muirhead with The Tonebenders Podcasts which helped me a lot with the incredible resources shared by all the sound heroes of the industry! I particularly loved the “Westside Story” episode with Gary Rysdstrom as well as “Lord Of The Rings Looking Back” with David Farmer, Tim Nielsen to name a few. Their insights helped me tremendously to tackle this scene with clarity!

Moreover I’ve been a bit off radar for the past two months as I have been studying advanced sound design at GOBELINS Paris to get out of my comfort zone and study sound through other scopes. Investing in myself has been the best decision I have ever made. It has given me purpose and helped me know myself more !(as old Aristotle would put it). 

Some of you may know that I an “Avid-Reaper” user (pun intended). In that I mean I use the hybrid-daw workflow of both Reaper (for Sound Design Library making) and Pro Tools. A special shout out to Brian Johnson who helped me build my confidence using reaper as a huge Sound Design asset combined with Soundminer rather than a silent heresy reserved only for the game industry. I encourage every Sound Designer to follow his youtube channel Brin Sound.

I hope you like it! 🤘

Thank you for your support! 😁
