Copernicus went to the Variety Artisan Awards at SBIFF and learned about THE MARTIAN, FURY ROAD, and THE FORCE AWAKENS Read the full article on AICN I went to the Variety Artisan Awards tonight at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival.  They honored lots of Academy Award Nominees, including: Carter Burwell for original score in CAROL, Hank Corwin for editing in THE BIG SHORT, Mark Mangini for sound editing in MAD MAX: FURY ROAD, Arthur Max for production design in THE MARTIAN, John Seale for cinematography in MAD MAX: FURY ROAD, Patrick Tubach for visual effects in THE FORCE AWAKENS, Dianne Warren for best song in THE HUNTING GROUND, and Jacqueline West for costume design in THE REVENANT.  I’ve written some of the highlights below.   Mark Mangini, Sound editor, MAD MAX: FURY ROAD Other films:  RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK, various STAR TREKs, GREMLINS… They treated the war rig as a character in the film.  The analogy was Moby Dick.  The war rig was the whale, and Immorten Joe was Ahab.  So they mixed in whale sounds to the mechanical sounds of the war rig.  When harpoons were shot into it, bear and whale sounds were mixed in.  In fact, when it crashes, only animal sounds are heard. They maxed out the largest recording mixer in North America at 2048 channels for the mix.  Not all can be heard, but you need lots of stuff in case George Miller wanted this sound or that brought up so you can hear it.
