old school Posted December 17, 2015 Report Share Posted December 17, 2015 I read this a few day ago. Mark is an articulate gentleman and a filmmaker who specializes in sound. Being a filmmaker is the key IMO. It's an attitude and POV that I think is lost on newer generation sound people. Not all of course, but too many. Filmmaking is a life long pursuit and gathering of knowledge and experience. And it's fun. CrewC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya, I liked that interview...especially Ulano's persistent effort to make the conversation not about the gear. Crew's comment reminds me of this anecdote (from a 1958 article by music columnist Leonard Lyons): Pablo Casals, who performed at the UN recently, is 81. He agreed to have Robert Snyder make a movie short, “A Day in the Life of Pablo Casals.” Snyder asked Casals, the world’s foremost cellist, why he continues to practice four and five hours a day. Casals answered: “Because I think I am making progress.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmgoodin Posted December 17, 2015 Report Share Posted December 17, 2015 Nice interview Matthias and Mark. A lot of good information for prospective production sound personnel. Mark has a lot of insight and knows what is important to recording a great track at the outset. More importantly, he details the intricacies of the personal interaction necessary to work on set in a collaborative way without creating enemies or putting sound in an adversarial position.

Chrisboom Posted December 29, 2015 Report Share Posted December 29, 2015 Mark is a great mixer, as a note to the article, Tarantino shoots his movies with one ( 1 ) camera . And with post production now, you can lift lines from various takes, off-camera dialogue boomed and wild-lines and throw them in an actors performance on screen and nobody can tell. Stick any mixer with half a brain and a decent boom operator on a single camera movie...the odds are you'll get a very low ADR percentage, rather than have 2 or 3 cameras shooting silly things we've all seen them do.

LLucky Posted June 28, 2016 Report Share Posted June 28, 2016 Good point about the single cam and ADR... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
