"Sasquatch Sunset" will premiere on January 19 at 6:15 p.m. MST in the Eccles Theatre with additional screenings through January 27 in the Ray Theatre, Egyptian Theatre, Rose Wagner Center and Redstone Cinemas. 

Heard City Client & Filmmaker David Zellner shared:

"We love the team at Heard City and have been fortunate enough to mix all our films there. Our latest film "Sasquatch Sunset" was particularly challenging in terms of the nuances of its intricate sound design, and Evan knocked it out of the park, it’s our best mix yet."

Heard City Sound Designer/Mixer Evan Mangiamele commented:

"The sound mix for ‘Sasquatch Sunset’ was a unique experience for me. With no spoken dialogue, there was so much space in the soundtrack to let the sound design (Jack Sobo) and music (Octopus Project) shine. It was lovely working with David and Nathan on the mix. They had a strong point of view on how their film should sound, but were very open and collaborative in experimenting with other ideas and directions for the mix. I’m so glad they trusted us with the sound mix and can’t wait for people to see and hear the film."
