"Tech Support": Best Sound Design - Volume I
Gerard is Canadian after all. They celebrated Thanksgiving north of the border last month, so hey, this isn't really "working on a holiday," is it?
Sound mixing is the multi-faceted art of compiling, engineering and balancing what we hear in a given film’s soundtrack. It is not the integration of artificially created sounds into said soundtrack (that would be sound editing), but the mixing of recorded sounds into the overall audible template of the film. Up to three sound re-recording mixers and a production sound mixer can share an Academy Award nomination for Best Sound Mixing, which had simply been known as “Best Sound” prior to 2003.
