Vancouver-based Eugenio Battaglia joins us to reflect on his work as sound director, sound designer and re-recording mixer on Longlegs. The unique voice that drives this film is what propelled it to its astonishing success. Eugenio, under the direction of director Oz Perkins, wanted the film’s soundscape to have a rock feel, so the film incorporated the subtle sounds of vinyl records, throwbacks, and an atmosphere of grit and insanity.
