On the 13th of november a screening of Sunset Contract took place in Eye in Amsterdam where it was enthusiastically received by an audience of some 300 people, crew, cast and industry professionals. Audio post production of this feature film (as well as music and sound design) took place in the Johnny Raw studio which has a mix down area of some 30m2. This is relatively small as compared to Eye’s cinema 1 which measures 400m2.
We were very happy the mix, partly stereo and partly 5.1 surround, translated very well to this large theatre. This makes the Johnny Raw Studio very attractive for “non-Hollywood budget productions”, both feature film and documentary.
The Johnny Raw Studio operates in an independent fashion and understands how to use limited resources without making compromises in quality and effectiveness.

The Johnny Raw Studio recently finalized the soundtrack for Sunset Contract, an Indiepend Pictures feature film, currently entering the film festival circuit before its commercial release. It tells the story of successful business man Brad, who runs into trouble when he meets the mysterious Ms Eve at his recently-acquired villa. There, he’s confronted with a cryptic contract he can’t remember agreeing to. When his girlfriend Mary suddenly appears, things spiral out of control while the sun sets and time runs out.
Johnny Raw worked on the audio post production, sound design and music. The music includes vocal parts by Kiki Holshuijsen and violin by James Ellis.
