"Day After Day"
Bensimon Byrne / Narrative / OneMethod
White Ribbon’s four-minute “Day After Day” video speaks directly to men who are using, or are at risk of using, gender-based violence as a response to the stresses of the pandemic. While the film uses the same set of words over and over again to share the perspectives of a man and woman living together with their child, its sound design contrasted the emotional difference between their experiences.
Natural environmental sounds populate the woman’s version, along with a high-pitched drone that conveys the underlying tension. For the man’s version, the same sound bed was used but with post-processing effects so that his story felt more threatening and disconnected from her world. Even as their words, scenes and sounds were mirrored, each version evoked different, powerful emotions.
