TFA on the feature film 'Bad Slippers' from director Ruben van der Meer

About 'Bad Slippers'

What do you get when a cult Dutch icon directs a feature film with heart, grit, and razor-sharp wit? You get Bad Slippers - the cinematic production of Ruben van der Meer, a name that needs no introduction to fans of Dutch comedy, improv, and bold storytelling. 

And when it came time to bring his vision to life sonically, he came to us.

TFA was entrusted with the full audio journey for Bad Slippers. Sound design, ADR, Foley, music editing, mixing, mastering, and a full Dolby Atmos mix. Every footstep, every punchline sculpted to surround, surprise, and immerse. We crafted the sonic landscape to match his creativity in this film. 

The collab

Working on this film wasn’t just a technical gig for us. It was a collaboration. Ruben’s career has always put a smile on our face: from his breakout days with De Lama’s to scene-stealing roles in Dutch classics like Papa Dag, Plan C and currently Vlog Mania. 

He’s got that rare gift of timing—comic, dramatic, and everything in between. 

There’s something electric about taking a film from rough cut to release-ready audio. Especially when the story’s this good—and the collaborators this passionate.

Stay tuned for the release - We can’t wait to see you at the screening!
