This time around, Soundworks Collection shares a wealth of gems from the Sound For Film Event, the Tonebenders share field recording adventures from South Africa, recommended reading on pro audio and more.
The Right Scuff interviews Foley artist Shelly Roden, the Guys On Film Podcast talks with Watson Wu about his Baby Driver work – and finally, Pandora for Brands looks at how sound (in this case, music) can alter our perception of food and taste.
Happy listening!
Episode outline: ‘In this episode we pass the podcast over to George Vlad and Daan Hendricks who tell us all about their trip to a field recording workshop in Mmabolela Reserve, Limpopo, South Africa. They discuss everything from the planning and preparations, getting from their homes in Europe to this remote location, and the gear they used (and how it held up in the extreme weather conditions). They also reminisce on the impressions the trip has left on their lives. All with fantastic examples of the sounds they recorded while there.’

Playlist outline: ‘Mix Magazine presented the fourth annual Sound for Film and TV event, an all-day exhibition and conference spotlighting the technologies and techniques behind sound for picture, from production to playback. The boom in television and streaming services, along with the emergence of Virtual Reality, has led to a technology/workflow change in how content is produced. The techniques and tools are merging, and studios and producers have adapted their methods. We bring film, television and virtual reality all together on the legendary Sony Pictures Studios lot in Culver City, California on September 16th, 2017.’

Episode outline: ‘Many of us would agree that music influences our lives in a number of profound ways. But have you ever considered food, eating and taste to be one of them? When we stop to think about it, there is hardly ever time when we dine in silence. Instead, eating is often accompanied by the chatter of friends or family members, a restaurant’s trendy playlist, your favorite Pandora cooking station, or even the audio of a primetime TV show playing in the background. No matter what (or where!) you’re eating, odds are you’re also listening to something.
Now, what if food and beverage brands could tap into this entangled connection between food and music to make their message more memorable and desirable? That would be pure gold for any marketer. To discover how brands can best use a music strategy to drive sales and engagement, we turned to four forward-thinking experts in the areas of crossmodal research (i.e. the study of how our senses work together), culinary arts and branding to examine this topic from multiple angles’
