Dear sound-listers I have been on this list for a while and would now be grateful if I could tap your expertise. I am an academic working on sound in art film...
Andy I think your list is almost exhaustive! The only aspect you don't seem to consider there is the engineers themselves. I'm a composer for film and music...
Rules be damned: Wondering if this thread was going to be ignored, I delayed comment on a topic, comment which could only be visceral. What the Hell, Group...

Hi Sally, I have had some experiences(pretty much all negative) of this sort of behaviour with sound effects. On one episodic show, the picture editor got in...
