The Sound of ‘Ghostbusters: Afterlife’ – official introduction:

“We’re turning back the clock to 1984 as we talk about Ghostbusters: Afterlife with Supervising Sound Editor & Re-Recording Mixer Will Files and Composer Rob Simonsen. Unlike many modern action-adventure films, this team, led by director Jason Reitman, tried to make everything sound as authentically ’80s as possible, eschewing modern sound design and film score aesthetics, in order to give the audience an experience reminiscent of the beloved original film (which happened to be be directed by Jason’s father, Ivan Reitman). The result is a delightful throwback to the action-comedies of yesteryear. And the three of us absolutely NERD OUT today, as we talk about all the ways they pulled this off, from both a technical and aesthetic perspective.

“”When Jason {Reitman, the director] and we sat down to talk about the movie, he said, ‘You’ve got to put yourself aside. This is… really about being custodians of what was done.”” So we had a lot of conversations about that and he said, ‘I’m telling every department that that is the mission here. It’s not to do what necessarily is, like, cool and modern and hip. This is about discovering the original, keeping it, and – where we can – walking forward, but in the clothes of the original.’ So, I think it was really important for Jason to signal to everyone, right at the opening logos: ‘We got you!'””
