Fade Out

“Fade-​​out” is a tech­nical term both used in cinema and sound to desi­gnate a tran­sition or an end : the decrease of a signal until silence or com­plete disap­pea­rance. The scene focuses on the pro­gressive burying of a drumset under a gravel flow where each impact is amplified and recorded as cra­shing on the dif­ferent instrument’s parts. The sequence pro­poses the immersive expe­rience of a raw tech­nical process by mate­ria­lizing the tran­sition between two states. The flow pro­duces a rythm section which slowly turns into a sound and visual chocking.
