4:32 - Heil and Klimek talk about working on this movie from pre-production to post production, how creating their own temporary tracks for use during the filming process compared to the use of commercial tracks and how such affected the entire film and prevented the common problem temporary tracks usually pose for composers, such as "temp love" and the similarity of motion picture soundtracks.
