The Sound of Ford v Ferrari | 2020 Oscars®

JANUARY 08, 2020

Ford v Ferrari is so much more than a race car movie. At its core, it’s a movie about a friendship, and about two men fighting for what they believe. In this episode the sound team talks about the carving out moments for internal character sounds to come through, the process of tracking down the original cars to keep the film sounding real, and the challenges of building a 45-minute racing sequence and keeping it acoustically interesting. In part 1, we present our conversation with sound supervisor Don Sylvester and re-recording mixers Paul Massey and Dave Giammarco, and in part 2 we hear from production sound mixer Steve Morrow.
