Conversations with Sound Artists Podcast - The Art of Sound Mixing Featuring Anna Behlmer

September 14, 2015 - 06:00 AM

The final stage of any collaborative process requires a delicate balance between artistry and decisiveness. The sound mixer works closely with the director to make sure that every sound is in its right place and that the story is always front and center. In this episode, 10-time Academy Award nominee Anna Behlmer talks about being one of the first female mixers in the movie business, strategies for handling a nervous director, and why you will always find colored Sharpie pens on a mixing stage.

About “Conversations with Sound Artists” Podcast:

Sound is an art and a craft that many people appreciate but that few know much about. The Dolby® Institute and the SoundWorks Collection collaborated on a limited series of 10 podcasts that take an in-depth look at different aspects of the sound process, including sound design for writers, dialogue editing, and sound design for games.

In each episode, the artist talks with the Dolby Institute’s Glenn Kiser and SoundWorks Collection’s Michael Coleman about the challenges and opportunities the artist faced while building the soundscapes you enjoy. We’ll introduce you to one sound artist per week over the next few months.

In keeping with Dolby’s history of supporting artists, Dolby Institute engages and empowers artists by providing education, inspiration and support throughout the creative process. With this podcast series, Dolby Institute hopes to empower next generation content creators and help unlock the power of sound and image technologies to help tell their stories.
