Not only did Ben Baird design and mix the sound for director Alex Parkinson's DRAMATIC film, Last Breath. He also designed and mixed the sound for director Alex Parkinson's DOCUMENTARY film, Last Breath. Same story told with two different approaches; documentary and dramatic - using the same director, same composer, and of course, same sound designer and mixer.
This is truly a rare occurrence, and in this brand new episode of the A Sound Effect Podcast, we're excited to share how Ben Baird approached the sound for both, what unique challenges each film posed, how documentary sound compares to dramatic film sound - and what he's taken away from this experience of mixing the same story for two different genres.
