Film Sound Education
Here are a few of my favorite sites for information on film sound:
Film Sound Daily. A site that starts out with a quote from one of the best sound pros working today can’t be at all a bad place to begin.
And what’s that quote?
“If we do out jobs well and throw in a little evangelizing, we can make sound as important a part of filmmaking as it should be.” — Gary Rydstrom
Get a little history of Motion Picture Sound here.
Don’t miss Film Sound.org as the section on film sound cliches is worth it!
And make sure you visit the SoundWorks Collection, a brand-new site with interviews with the leading sound people working in film today.
For insight into my personal work, read the article from Electronic Musician I wrote on doing the sound for The Craving Heart. This film will be released on DVD in February 2010. And the blog of my current film project is here, too.
There are more, but these will get you started down your road to learning what it takes to work in film sound today.
