Team Deakins has a great conversation with Skip Lievsay, sound designer, editor and mixer. Now that’s a mouthful! We learn how Skip transitioned from picture editing to working in sound. He breaks down the roles of the sound department, by way of how the Academy Awards categorizes sound. We talk about the difference between sound design and sound effects as well as how Skip decides to choose already made sound effects as opposed to when he creates new ones. Skip tells us about the battle royal: when to use music and when to use sound effects and how to balance them. A very enlightening episode on all things sound! Don’t miss it. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ -⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #teamdeakins #teamdeakinspodcast #rogerdeakins #jamesellisdeakins #jamesdeakins #collaboration #cinematography #rogerdeakinscinematography #SkipLievsay #soundeditor #rerecordingmixer #sounddesigner #editing #NoCountryForOldMen #Gravity #Roma #filmmaking #podcast #podcasting #filmpodcast #hollywood
