From the Sound Standpoint with Kelley Baker (Good Will Hunting, My Own Private Idaho, Finding Forrester)
from Love Music More (with Scoobert Doobert) · host Scoobert Doobert
Kelley’s known as the Angry Filmmaker. He’s pissed because he’s passionate. He knows the value of stories. The value of putting the important things first. And that’s why he’s such a fantastic filmmaker and sound designer. As he signed the book he so graciously sent me, “Remember: the only people who really care about sound are the audience.” We dug into ADR (Automated Dialogue Replacement) in film and how that can kill emotion. About how technical skills are only there to pave way for the emotional. And about caring about the right things and speaking up for yourself. Sound designing is the art of world building. So step into Kelley’s world for a moment, and come out the other end loving music more. (The book he sent was The Angry Filmmaker Survival Guide Part 2: Sound Conversations With (un)Sound People. It’s fantastic.)For 30% off your first year of DistroKid to share your music with the world click DistroKid.com/vip/lovemusicmoreConnect with Kelley on:✏️ Website ✏️ Substack ✏️ IGSubscribe to this pod's blog on Substack to receive deeper dives on the regular 🏊♂️Tune into my music and surf the different-yet-connected platforms at ScoobertDoobert.pizza 🍕Pick up my new LP "I" on vinyl in its full spinning colorfulness while they last 🎨Going up and down the whole rollercoaster.
