Were there any special efforts made to kind of enhance the atmosphere of terror on the set?
00:05
Not to enhance the atmosphere of terror. I mean, I guess one thing,
00:08
sometimes when you're doing a quiet scene, it is very quiet and you really need the actors to be
00:11
in that. And then sometimes there's so many things going on that they're just pretending
00:15
that it's very quiet and they just are very good at acting. But one of the things was oftentimes
00:20
I would have a microphone and be making creature sounds for them to react to so they could, you
00:24
know, hear a screech and hear clicking and know what they were sort of experiencing.
00:29
And they were terrible sound effects, but the actors found it useful. I remember Lupita really
00:33
liked it. And then on one scene, Alex Wolff, she suggested to him like, oh, you should have
00:38
Michael make the sounds. And he was like, no, that'll just be so distracting. And then he was
00:42
like, okay, I'll try it one time. And I did it. And he was like, yeah, we got to do the sounds every
00:46
time. That was great. So they were terrible sounds, but they seem to, they seem to work.
00:50
I need to see that in the special features or something.
00:52
I hope no one sees it. It's so embarrassing. And a lot of the takes, you could hear me in the
00:56
background, like making screeches and we just have to mute it all because it was pretty embarrassing.
01:09
So let's see.

So let's see.
01:10
So let's see.

So let's see.
