That's a job!? Very interesting and funny short, 20 April 2003
Author: bob the moo from Birmingham, UK

A look behind the scenes of MIIB to watch the foley artists at work adding all the background and special effects noises to the finished scenes. Covering everything from an alien battle to Agent J walking across a floor, we see what they use and how they use it.

That's a job? This was my reaction upon seeing what this short was about. I could believe this ragtag group of individuals throw stuff around for a living. However watching this short really made me appreciate their work - work I have never really thought about before. I know that these people exist but I never think about how much they contribute.

This short does a good job of letting us hear from the people involved. It avoids being a promo for MIIB and the actual film they are working on is a mere detail. The people are all good-natured and you do feel bad for undervaluing them. Some of them talk very grandly about their profession and are a bit much but the majority are good humoured yet still manage to show that it involves skill and not just throwing stuff around!

This stood out from the other MIIB shorts as it is actually about the process rather than the film. It is quite interesting as it is funny to see them using day to day objects to get sounds that are used in a multi-million dollar sci-fi film that has state of the art visual effects!

It is interesting and funny and is well worth a watch. Easily stands out from the collection of MIIB production-documentary shorts.
