Sound FX NYC

META had an opportunity to be a part of the immersive SOUND FX experience with FX Networks and Creative Riff. Designed by Creative Riff and SOFTlab, SOUND FX NYC was built around the theme of Drama and featured theme music, dialogue and sound effects from FX Network's "Mr. In Between", "American Crime Story Snowfall", "Mayans M.C.", "Sons of Anarchy" and "The Bridge". As the audience could see themselves reflected in the art, the installation focused on sounds and dialogue that told stories of personal reflection and growth against soundtrack music, and foley sounds that created a scenic backdrop (i.e. motorcycle sounds for Sons of Anarchy or MAYANS, the sounds of cameras clicking from a press conference in American Crime Story, etc.). Dialogue represented main characters’ self reflection and growth, and “mirrored” guests reflecting on themselves in the sculpture.
