In this episode, host Chris Albert is joined by Emmy-nominated sound mixer, Tony Volante, who contributed his expertise to two current National Geographic films, Fauci and We Feed People. Volante shares his approach for designing sound on documentaries that blend archival footage, talking-head interviews and in-the-moment action, in order to add to the films’ emotional impact and cinematic value. He also shares what drew him to sound mixing in the first place and these two films in particular, and his advice for anyone interested in pursuing sound design as a career.
