In Pursuit of Silence - Skywalker Sound Team Discussion Oct 26, 2017

Show notes

The Skywalker Sound sound team behind the documentary In Pursuit of Silence - A Documentary Film recently discussed their approach for creating a dynamic mix and creative sound design to a film about silence.

Featuring sound designer & supervising sound editor Steve Bissinger, re-recording mixer & additional effects editor Zach Martin and dialogue editor Shaun Farley.

Moderator: Michael Coleman of Soundworks Collection

In Pursuit of Silence (www.pursuitofsilence.com) is a fascinating and meditative film and exploration of silence and the impact of noise on our lives. Filmed in eight countries, it immerses us in a cinematic journey around the globe—from a traditional tea ceremony in Kyoto, to the streets of Mumbai, the loudest city on the planet—and inspires us to both experience silence and celebrate the wonders of our world. Other highlights include filming in the anechoic chamber at Orfield Labs in Minneapolis (the “Quietest Place on Earth”), Alaska’s Denali Memorial Park and Trappist and Zen monasteries, as the filmmakers distill our experience of the world and challenge us to see it anew.

Music and Sound Design in Theatrical Trailers and TV Spots Oct 13, 2017

Show notes

Mix Magazine presents the fourth annual Sound for Film and TV event, an all-day exhibition and conference spotlighting the technologies and techniques behind sound for picture, from production to playback. This event took place on September 16th, 2017 at Sony Pictures Studios.

Music and sound design play a central role in the marketing of movies and TV shows: they set the tone, drive the story, and engage the audience in ways that are unique to the advertising genre. The audio we hear in advertising is often specifically made for it, and is not typically sourced from the corresponding production or soundtrack. Our panel, comprised of professionals at the top of their fields, will discuss the unique creative and logistical demands encountered in this important industry niche.

Panelists: Jez Colin, President, Hi-Finesse Music & Sound
Josh Feelstra, Composer, music producer, sound designer
Joseph Bauer, Composer, music producer, sound designer
Sohrab Nafici, Executive Director, Music/Legal. Warner Bros. Pictures

There are big budgets and small budgets, big productions and small productions—but no matter the size or scale of the project, the audio team has to create high-quality sound for multiple delivery formats, immersive and stereo. As the demands increase, so do the challenges facing post-production sound artists. This panel will outline how sound supervisors approach different type budgets and different type formats, from 5.1 stems to immersive tracks for Theatrical, Television, and home theater and streaming delivery. The key is that workflows and decision-making need to be flexible and innovative.
