soundtrane Posted January 7, 2012 Report Share Posted January 7, 2012 Found this on RAMPS: some truly great film makers he has worked with. some of the pictures on the website are also wonderful. http://georges.vaglio.free.fr The Man is 90 years old today. -------- Bonsoir, J’ai créé un site internet à la mémoire d’un technicien du son français (Georges Vaglio) qui en plus de 50 ans de carrière et participé à plus de 150 films et documentaires recensés. Il a occupé tous les postes techniques du son de perchman, « recorder », assistant, premier assistant, ingénieur et de plus était un électronicien très compétant que ça soit de la lampe au transistor, il a créé les premiers micros HF utilisés dans le cinéma français. Il a maintenant 90 ans et malheureusement sa mémoire se délite. Avec sa fille unique, Sylvie (ma femme), nous avons essayé de reconstituer cette carrière. Au vu des documents dont nous disposons (photo, contrats, bulletins de salaires …) nous pensons avoir reconstitué à 95 % son parcours. Vous qui êtes du métier vous l’avez sans doutes côtoyé ou connaissez quelqu’un qui à travaillé avec lui par exemple sur « Dieu créa la femme », « Paris brûle-t-il ? » ou bien sûr d’autres films. Je vous demanderais de visiter le site http://georges.vaglio.free.fr et de nous remonter le maximum de commentaires pour que nous puissions le finaliser et le corriger si nécessaire.

Scott Smith Posted January 8, 2012 Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 Babelfish to the rescue! Sometimes it doesn't get the phrasing quite right, but it beats having to look up all the words... A great site, with some incredible photos. It's maintained by Mr. Vaglio's son-in-law, who has been working on filling in some of the missing information. --S Here is a (very) rough translation, for which I have made some basic assumptions on the writers intent: Good evening, I created an Internet site dedicated to French sound technican Georges Vaglio, who during his career has taken part in more than 150 films and documentaries. He occupied all the technical positions for sound recording, boom operator, “to retie”, assistant, first assistant, engineer and moreover was an electronics specialist very compétant the transistor, he created first RF microphone system used in the French cinema. He is now 90 years old and unfortunately his memory is failing. With his/her only daughter, Sylvie (my wife), we tried to reconstitute his career. With the documents of which we have posted (photos, contracts, bulletins of wages…) we think we have reconstituted about 95% his career. You who are in the trade without doubt know somebody who may have with worked with him, for example on “God Created the Woman” or “Does Paris Burn? ” or perhaps other films. I would ask you the site http://georges.vaglio.free.fr and make comments so that we can finalize it and to correct it if necessary.

Marc Wielage Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 Ah, I think two of the movies are Is Paris Burning and also And God Created Woman. Both very highly-regarded 1960s films. The man worked in film for at least 50 years, according to IMDB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
