The film tells the semi-autobiographical story of "Buddy," a 9-year-old boy living in the city during "The Troubles" of 1969. To help convey the overwhelming feeling of menace, seemingly just around every corner, the director pulled together an award-winning sound team that’s joined us today to discuss how they crafted such a rich soundtrack for such an intimate film.

The result is a delightful throwback to the action-comedies of yesteryear.

Crafting action, pathos, and humor in No Time to Die

The latest James Bond film, from director Cary Joji Fukunaga, is a veritable feast of emotion and tone.

WandaVision — A totally different kind of Marvel series

WandaVision mixes stylistic formats in some truly bizarre, but also satisfying, ways. At times it harkens back to the sitcoms of yesteryear — even filming part of an episode live in front of a studio audience, in order to capture an authentic laugh track — and other times like what one would expect from a series taking place in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. So how did the sound team pull all these disparate stylistic elements into such a cohesive and satisfying amalgamation? Well, we sat down with them to ask exactly that.
