Any Sound Designers on Here?

Hi Everyone, I make a web series where I wear all the hats and I'm not too proud to admit I spread myself a bit too thin on the latest episode! I've had a devil of time trying to work in just a single line of ADR, but laboring over it for over 4 hours, tweaking filters, frequencies and every other k...

Holy Crap Ai

If you haven't heard about it yet Wonderstudio's new ai tool is going to be an absolute bombshell in the vfx world.

It can fully replace an actor with a 3d character including full body and facial animation.

We're talking about turning hours and hours of manual work into a few clicks. This is truly m...

This is unreal Langley Coleman - WOW. Talk about a time-save. Agree that you still need manual support, but man, what a cost savings from a producing perspective.

Please I need help.

Has anyone here worked with Disney? I has been my dream to work with them, and share ideas. I have ideas for film and TV but also business ideas to help in their outreach to the community, and ways they can help others with their content. If anyone knows how to help me I would be grateful.

Thank you for your time.

5.1 surround sound

In the studio I did a check for the 5.1 surround sound for my short film Room Available. I wasn’t able to check this while editing. How do you deal with this normally? #movie #sound

Amanda Toney

Hi Frank Van Der Meijden - I unfortunately don't know the answer to this, but commenting in hopes someone in my network will see this and can respond?

Brad Carpenter

Frank, All my TV shows master in 5.1, and nowadays 7.1 as well. That mastering happens on the mix stage where they pan everything over to the appropriate speakers. Does that answer your question? If not, please tell me more, and I'll try to help.

Frank Van Der Meijden

Thanx, Amanda Toney

Yes, agreed. No way to pan everything correctly without the speakers to pan to. I'm assuming you were working in ProTools for sound?
