19AES-AC02: Best Practices in Re-Recording Mixing

Presenter:
Tom Fleischman, Soundtrack Film & Television - New York, NY, USA

This master class on re-recording will reprise some of Tom Fleischman's master class from AES145, with a primary focus on the use of developing technologies in cinema. Tom will discuss how he approaches a project from the beginning through to the end, on how the mix can enhance storytelling, the importance of clarity of dialogue, and how music and sound effects engage the audience. Also covered will be the distinctions between cinema and episodic productions, dealing with continuity between episodes, changing creative hierarchies, and the blinding speed at which mixes are made for series.
