Interview: Chris Wiborg – Lead Actor of Horror Short – Taste in Music (Video/Audio)
‘Taste in Music’ is the debut horror short film from British-Norwegian director Kyle Sevenoaks, and stars Norwegian-French actor Chris Wiborg. When a cosmic storm hits Earth, a man alone in his remote cabin has to face down the transformed evil that has become of his keyboard.
Explains director Kyle Sevenoaks:
This film was inspired by a conversation “what would happen if this keyboard became alive?” I had access to a very remote cabin on the Norwegian coast that’s only accessible by boat, and it quickly became apparent that this had to be horror, with a touch of comedy since that’s pretty much who I am.
I wanted to create a quick and tight, self-contained story that was fun and asks the question “what would you do in this ridiculous situation?”
Having filmed this on a shoestring budget of only a few hundred dollars and the good will of friends and acquaintances, making this film taught me a lot about what it is to be a director, what to take care of next time and how important it is to know the different departments, if even a little bit.
The short film stars Chris Wiborg who debuted his official acting career in the music videos of his band,’ I The Betrayer’ (vocalist/lyricist). However, Wiborg has had a passion for acting all his life, joining local theatres at a young age, producing countless amateur movies, and putting on personas while streaming on Twitch.
We spoke to Chris about his passion for acting, about the role he had in ‘Taste in Music’, the work that went into it, and how he was able to infuse his own love of horror into the character and film.
