Sometimes, you have to go out and find the perfect sound yourself.
This post was written by Anthony Vanchure.
As a supervising sound editor at Formosa Group, I often work on a wide variety of projects. During a call with the sales team, the topic of Weird: The Al Yankovic Story came up. As a huge fan of Weird Al, I immediately jumped in and said, “Yes, we have to do it!”
I grew up watching UHF and have fond memories of watching the music video for Amish Paradise with friends and laughing uncontrollably. In fact, I even dressed up as Weird Al for Halloween once and sent a photo of myself in costume to the producers, which helped me land a meeting with the director Eric Appel. We hit it off and shared the same vision for the film’s sound, which led to me being offered the position of Supervisor.
