Knock Knock has been a very interesting listen. I have come to appreciate sound design in a new way and not only in high budget Science fiction movies like Transformers or Dune, or movies where sound is the obvious focus like in Skinamarink or The sound of metal. This is not uncommon, to quote Ron Geesin ‘Because it is the unknown force, it creeps under doors and it gets into you… It’s used and abused more than any other art form.’ Sound effects undoubtedly change the we perceive media as an audience as investigated in Geesin and Breakwells piece ‘Auditorium’. However, they often go overshadowed by the visual elements of a production.
