Darren Aronofsky’s Longtime Collaborator Craig Henighan on the Dolby Atmos Remaster of Pi

MARCH 23, 2023

6-time Emmy Award winning (Stranger ThingsLove Death + Robots) sound designer, supervising sound editor, and re-recording mixer Craig Henighan has worked with director Darren Aronofsky since Requiem for a Dream. And with A24’s 25th anniversary re-release of Pi, Craig discusses the challenges of updating its original soundtrack. The indie film’s razor thin budget only allowed for a four day mix back in 1998, and as a result, Craig had his work cut out for him as he reconstructed and rebuilt the original soundtrack into its stunning new remaster and Dolby Atmos® mix.
