Exclusive Interview With Ren Klyce, Sound Designer of Fight Club and Where the Wild Things Are
Posted on Sunday, November 15th, 2009 by Brendon Connelly
This week, the Fight Club starts again with the release on Blu-ray of a tenth anniversary edition of David Fincher’s fan favourite. Every frame of the film was scrutinised by the director, or so it says here, in order to ensure the transfer was reflective, finally, of the ideal realisation of the film. That sentence alone has probably shifted a skip full of copies. What’s likely to shift a heap more are the innovative interactive special features.
After the break you can view my interview with Ren Klyce, the film’s sound designer. As well as collaborating with Fincher since Se7en, he most recently earned the credits of supervising sound editor and sound re-recording mixer on Spike Jonze’ Where the Wild Things Are. He’s just the man to be out there plugging this new Fight Club disc too, as the best of the new special features revolves around his work in the sound department.
