Behind the great sound of The Mandalorian – with Bonnie Wild:

The Soundworks Collection and The Dolby Institute has shared a brilliant interview with Bonnie Wild on the sound of The Mandalorian – check it out below. Oh, and as a bonus, we’ve also added a number of additional features on the sound of Star Wars.

Bonnie Wild, the sound effects editor and re-recording mixer of Disney+’s hit show The Mandalorian, takes us behind the scenes for a conversation about achieving cinematic scale and production value on a television budget, balancing the palette of new sound creation with classic Star Wars sounds we all know and love, why mixing in a home theater environment was important for the show, and how to do a Jawa loop group session.

It is the first live action series in the Star Wars franchise. Set five years after the events of Return of the Jedi and 25 years prior to the events of The Force Awakens, it follows the title character, a Mandalorian bounty hunter named Din Djarin, and his exploits beyond the reaches of the New Republic.
