SUMMARY:Screenwriting For Sound
DESCRIPTION:Basically\, this is about moving sound from the caboose of the train to the engine. We will discuss and provide examples of ways to break new creative ground in film/video storytelling by thinking deeply during pre-production and production about characters’ evolving perception of sound\, as well as the story’s evolving perception of sound\, then modifying every other craft to accommodate those insights. 								\n				\n				\n				\n																														\n				\n				\n				\n							\n			\n		\n						\n				\n				\n				\n									Randy will be joined by the writer and director Manfred Lopez Grem\, with whom he is collaborating on the screenplay for Helltown. 								\n				\n				\n				\n									 To prepare for this talk\, you can refer to these links which will provide a foundation for our online discussion:Screenwriting for Sound – randythom.blogWriting for Sound in Barton Fink 2 hours including Q&A.Tickets include unlimited access to a recording of the event. 								\n				\n				\n				\n									  RANDY THOM 								\n				\n				\n				\n									Randy Thom started his career in radio and music recording before making the transition to film in 1978\, when he was hired on Apocalypse Now (1979) as a sound effects recordist. Since then\, Thom has worked in a wide variety of creative capacities within the sound department in over 175 films. For example\, in addition to being the music mixer on Star Wars: Episode VI – Return of the Jedi (1983)\, Thom was also the production sound mixer for all the footage shot in the US. Since 1983\, Thom has been on staff as a sound designer and mixer at Lucasfilm’s Skywalker Sound facility. He is part of a small group of sound designers that are following in Walter Murch and Ben Burtt‘s footsteps in the continuing work of turning motion picture sound into an art form and not simply a series of technical processes. His work on a film often begins before the film has started shooting\, and becomes an integral part of the storytelling and emotional impact of the film. Randy Thom has been part of Robert Zemeckis‘ core creative team ever since Forrest Gump (1994). Through his career Thom has worked with such top Hollywood talents as Walter Murch\, Francis Ford Coppola\, George Lucas\, Steven Spielberg\, Brad Bird\, Tim Burton\, Chris Columbus\, Mel Brooks and the Farrelly Brothers. Thom has received two Academy Awards for sound\, The Right Stuff (1983)\, and for sound editing\, The Incredibles (2004). He has fifteen Oscar nominations.– IMDb Mini Biography By: Harry CaulRANDYTHOMBLOG 								\n				\n					\n				\n		\n					\n				\n				\n									MANFRED LOPEZ GREM 								\n				\n				\n				\n									Manfred Lopez Grem is a Mexican-American writer and director. In 2005\, he founded a non-profit foundation dedicated to film production in partnership with the government of Michoacan\, Mexico. Through the foundation\, he produced\, wrote and directed over 200 works. In 2018\, due to threats from a cartel\, the foundation was forced to shut down\, prompting Lopez Grem to flee the country. He relocated to the United States\, where he shifted his focus to screenwriting. Since then\, he’s joined the WGA and secured multiple writing deals\, including a seven-figure one. According to Scott Myers\, that deal was one of only 26 Hollywood spec deals of 2021.
