  • We were thrilled to meet up with Academy Award Winning Sound Mixer Tom Curley, CAS to breakdown some scenes from the film that supercharged his career : 2014’s “Whiplash”.
    A film that began as a low budget indie project, “Whiplash” was shot in just 19 days. Helmed by then unknown writer/director Damien Chazelle, the film went on to gross $49 million against its original budget of $3 million and swept the 87th Annual Academy Awards, winning awards for : Best Supporting Actor, Best Film Editing, and Best Sound Mixing, as well as nominations in the categories of Best Picture, and Best Adapted Screenplay. The score also received a Grammy nomination in 2015.
    Join us, as we go Behind the Scene on one of the most exciting films of the last decade!
    Massive, heartfelt thanks to Trew Audio in Burbank, LA for letting us film this one at their space!
    During this time of massive slow down around the world, we are very grateful for the sound community. We see the many ways you are all keeping busy, keeping motivated, and keeping connected, and it’s a great inspiration to us! Thank you for watching our series, for sharing, for commenting. Stay safe, stay strong, and be nice to one another.

    I just seen this movie about 2 hours ago. And for the last 2 hours I’ve been researching everything about it. This is now my favorite movie now.

    They gave the sound guy a lot of pre-prod? A dream gig.

    I've been doing so much research on sound over the past month trying to get myself educated for as much as possible as I embark on my feature film journey. This was so insightful and really gave me so many things to think about! Thank you so much for this content.

    Second time I’ve watched this. It is the best most informative sound mixer interview I’ve ever seen. And it reminded me that even though I keep thinking of buying a new 888, I have a barely used 788T and CL-9 in the closet that is perfectly capable of doing excellent sound work on a film. I should fire it up and get busy with it again.

    Tom, great sound on a project that was invigorating from the day you read the script. Nice collaboration with director and camera to work things out ahead of time. The downtown open air set, as one challenge observed and met.
    Had worked with JK on The Closer tv show and he was a nice person. Not wanting to be wired was a challenge you met well. That he can speak up helps that situation.
    Glad you and the sound team, including playback, got the recognition you deserved. Thanks for doing the interview with Kim

    Thanks for sharing man! Great story! Can't believe that you couldnt wire main charakter and still made a great job. However I'd probably try to convince him as hard as I could to wear one, haha. Not an easy job without one. Anyways, congrats on making great movie and all the awards!

  • @Dustbrigade
    @Dustbrigade 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Thank you for sharing! Was a pleasure to get some insight. One thing I am curious about was the riding of the recording gain for the dynamic music scene. Then we get to understand that all the mics were wireless, including the boom. How was the gain structure like? I thought if anything, it would distort at the TX first, why not just keep the tx low, set the recorder close to unity gain from the RX, then ride the faders and leave any gaining for post production?
    tltr: What is the reason for adjusting recorder gain during takes when the mics are wireless?

    • @SoundSpeeding
      @SoundSpeeding 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I wondered that too. Thought perhaps maaaaaybe he meant it is "(nearly) always wireless", and that for the scenes with very wide dynamics then perhaps it was wired????
