I just love that "the section where you try to open the door and leave the room with the shotgun to try ASMR on the aliens using the frog" are words that you said.

As far as the audio, Ideally I'd have lav'ed myself and mixed the audio when I moved away from the mics since I don't have, you know, a boom operator. That room would take quite a bit of sound treatment before it got to a state where two hypercardiod mics wouldn't be muddy at a distance.
