We talk with Norway’s own Tormod Ringnes, about his excellent sound work on director Margreth Olin’s new documentary, Songs Of Earth. As the film’s title implies, the sound of the film is extremely important. We follow the director’s 83 year old father as he hikes the rugged and beautiful nature of Norway in every season of the year. From intense ice sound design to desolate mountain silence.

We loved having bandleader and drummer/percussionist Dom Palombi back to talk about his new album, Dom Palombi’s Game Night! Vol. 2. There are about twice as many musicians on this album than on Vol. 1, with what Dom describes as more personal track choices than before. The musicianship is just beyond measure, and it’s a fun, adventurous, delightful, funky romp through some great tunes. The three originals are fantastic. ENJOY!

Recorded live at the 2024 Sundance Film Festival, Academy Award®-nominated director (“Raya and the Last Dragon”) — and Dolby Institute Fellowship winner — Carlos López Estrada brings together another all-star panel of Hollywood talent, this time posing the question: Is “No Budget Filmmaking” even possible in this day and age?
“There’s just so much pressure on a film and on a filmmaker that has nothing to do with the film being good, or them arriving at their artistic voice. I’ve worked on zero-dollar budgets, I’ve worked recently on $150 million budgets. And the problems on both ends of the spectrum are exactly the same. Your energy and your attention goes to so many places that have nothing to do with the actual movie, have nothing to do with the art, because of the capitalistic requirements of us, as artists. And if we really care about art and we really care about cinema… We have to change the way we talk about cinema… We want to advance the medium and we want to have a discourse around film that is not just, ‘did you like it? Did you hate it? Did it make money?'”
—Justin Simien, Film & Television Producer, Writer, and Director
