Just spotted this brilliant feature on the sound for Rogue One – definitely worth checking out! Here’s Sound on Sound’s introduction:
Rogue One’s gritty, war film aesthetic is a real departure for the Star Wars franchise, and this realism is born out in the sound design. We visited the iconic Skywalker Sound to talk to Supervising Sound Editors Christopher Scarabosio and Matthew Wood about world creation, making sci-fi weapons sound realistic, and how some unexpected sampling brought K-2SO — the film’s sardonic and loveable droid — to life!
Thanks to Matteo Milani for finding this.
