Whitechapel

Post Hackenbacker

Client Carnival Film and Television

Brief Complete the audio post production for the fourth series of the drama in which a team of detectives investigate murders that seem to be copycat killings based on historical crimes.

How it was done Hackenbacker founder Nigel Heath was the re-recording mixer for the six-part series.

Some of the characters in the ITV drama were deliberately denied audio ‘presence’ of their physicality, while others had their voices, or the backgrounds in the scenes in which they feature, subtly manipulated to create a feeling of unease.

Extensive use of binaural audio was used in a bid to enhance the viewer’s experience during the more scary moments, while attention was paid to ensure that the audio had the desired impact for a range of viewing platforms.
