We mixed the sounds ourselves. If they were going to put the sound back onto our film [Pink Floyd: Live at Pompeii.], we wanted to mix it ourselves Picture Quote #1

Nothing good ever happens at lunch. The cafeteria is a giant sound stage where they film daily segments of Teenage Humiliation Rituals. And it smells gross Picture Quote #1

Sound and sound design has always been very important to my approach to film, because it is a more subversive and allusive aspect of the medium Picture Quote #1

I’m always searching for a signature sound and melody that resonates with the film and audience and becomes integral to the film, game, or show Picture Quote #1

Sometimes filming can be grueling when you’re shooting the same scene for a week, or you’re sitting around for 7 hours a day. They sound like very first-world champagne problems. I don’t mean to sound like life is so hard, but filming sometimes is tougher than other times Picture Quote #1

I’m in four different films this year, and I have four different accents. I sound different in every film. You have to love a character to play it well, and change in my work is what I want Picture Quote #1

Sony could have $50 million and a sound stage and A-list actors and never make the same film. The constraints on this film became the essence of this film, became the power of this film Picture Quote #1

In terms of romantic films, all-time romantic films, I really like ‘Gone With the Wind.’ And I realize I sound so cliched saying that, but there’s something so absolutely romantic about it Picture Quote #1

When I was filming ‘Lost,’ we’d be in the jungle. The only thing we had to contend with was the sound of the ocean. That was it, really Picture Quote #1

Television cannot film corruption. Television cannot spend five days on a rattling railway train, talking endlessly. Television needs excitement, it needs an angle, it needs a ‘sound bite Picture Quote #1

More and more people are seeing the films on computers - lousy sound, lousy picture - and they think they’ve seen the film, but they really haven’t Picture Quote #1

I try to make films, not movies. I’ve never liked the expression ‘movie’, but it sounds elitist to say that Picture Quote #1

Sound of My Voice’ is an amazing film. Small, simple, yet incredibly thought provoking Picture Quote #1

The fabulous side of Taboo was dressing up and dancing like no one was watching you. There were no rules. You had Jeffrey Hinton playing every kind of music. It was like going back to when I used to deejay at Planet in 79, where you’d mix in nutty things like hip-hop or reggae or The Sound of Music [1965] or other film soundtracks - whatever Picture Quote #1

The first two projects I did out of my dorm room were mock film soundtracks Picture Quote #1

Music or sound in a film is a character as important as another character Picture Quote #1

The big studio era is from the coming of sound until 1950, until I came in... I came in at a crux in film, which was the end of the studio era and the rise of filmmaking Picture Quote #1

I love the idea of using film language similarly to how musicians use music - combining images and sounds in a way that they create an emotional effect Picture Quote #1

I usually work on a film soundtrack for two years, turning in a song every few months, and that keeps my creative energy high, because I’m constantly rotating projects. The trick is to make sure I don’t work too hard and get exhausted Picture Quote #1

I want young Indian composers to be able to do more than just film music. I want to give them the skills that will enable them to create their own palette of sounds instead of having to write formulaic music. It doesn’t matter if they become sound engineers, producers, composers or performers - I want them to be as imaginative as they like Picture Quote #1

Dolby stereo increases the possibility of emptiness in film sound at the same time that it enlarges the space that can be filled. It’s this capacity for emptiness and not just fullness that offers possibilities yet to be explored. Kurosawa has magnificently exploited this dimension in Dreams: sometimes the sonic universe is reduced to a single point-the sound of the rain, an echo that disappears, a simple voice Picture Quote #1

I think that George Lucas’ ‘Star Wars’ films are fantastic. What he’s done, which I admire, is he has taken all the money and profit from those films and poured it into developing digital sound and surround sound, which we are using today Picture Quote #1

This character in the film, these things that he says which sound like advice and wise things, they are very common for Orientals. It’s all the tradition Picture Quote #1

I like film soundtracks. I like the soundtracks better than the movies Picture Quote #1

Silent films were, I think, more different than we know to sound films. We think of it as simply that we added dialogue and in actual fact I think it was an entirely different art form Picture Quote #1

In my view, the only way to see a film remains the way the filmmaker intended: inside a large movie theater with great sound and pristine picture Picture Quote #1

You can find the whole world of a film in one instrument, or you can find a world of sound in the orchestra Picture Quote #1
