Ruf Lanz: Tarantino film with vegetables re-scored for Hiltl
The Zurich-based agency Ruf Lanz has produced a TV commercial for Hiltl that offers a behind-the-scenes look at the work of a professional sound designer. The commercial reveals the methods still used today—even in Hollywood—to produce certain sounds.
The Zurich agency Ruf Lanz has created a cinema spot for the vegetarian restaurant Hiltl, in which a professional sound designer is looked over the shoulder. According to the press release, it reveals how certain sounds are still produced today - even in Hollywood: with crunchy vegetables. The final scene of Quentin Tarantino's Death Proof is set to music with the help of carrots, leeks, tomatoes and co.
The idea and screenplay were written by Markus Ruf. The film was directed by Serge Hoeltschi, a Swiss national living in Los Angeles, with whom Ruf Lanz previously shot the TV commercials "Stevie Wonder" and "Andrea Bocelli" for the Mühlehalde home for the blind. The commercial was produced by Onfilm Zurich with Daniela Berther as producer. The sound designer is Peter Bräker, who has already worked on films such as Snow White, Sternenberg and ernstfall Havanna.
