Filmusik’s Exhibit at the Portland Art Museum

Join us this Sunday the 14th at the Portland Art Museum as part of the museum’s Family Day event.

We’ll be hosting an event for all ages where participants can try their hand creating sounds for films.  The art of sound effects and Foley is often overlooked by audiences, by creating the sounds for films from scratch, these artists immerse the viewer in their environment.  Noises as subtle as the rustle of an actor’s sleeve or as loud as a planet exploding are all an integral part of telling a story.

Working in the Grand Ballroom alongside the artist’s of Filmusik, everyone can see how to make sounds in time with film and then hear their sounds played back with the film.  Use bubble wrap, cellophane, door knobs, balloons, shoes and all manner of other gadgets to make noises along with others.


Herculean Opera

Filmusik teams up with Opera Theatre Oregon this summer for a cinematic opera experience of hideous ghouls and rippling abs.  “Hercules Vs. Vampires” syncs the gorgeously gaudy 1961 Mario Bava (Black Sunday, Fashion House of Death) sword and sandals epic with live performance of a new opera by film composer Patrick Morganelli, commissioned by OTO.

What we do

Filmusik creates original performances combining film with live music, dubbing and sound effects.

The effect is surreal and magical, like being inside Disney’s Fantasia. The live voice actors blend their dialogue with the orchestra and the visuals to create a once in a lifetime performance.
