Making Waves: The Art of Cinematic Sound (2019)

Making Waves is both an informative, friendly introduction to the world of film sound and a passionate advocation of the art. There are in-depth interviews with some of the biggest names in Hollywood sound design – Ben Burtt, Skip Livesay, Randy Thom, Gary Rydstrom and the industry’s superstar, the always-entertaining Walter Murch – and in directing – George Lucas, Stephen Spielberg, David Lynch, as well as a great many others.

There’s an entertaining history of film sound and a breakdown of all the elements that go into the finished whole. In a concise 90 minutes it manages to include most of the major technological innovations and pioneering films and figures. It also manages to give a strong voice to the many women who have worked at the highest level on blockbuster films (e.g. Cecilia Hall on Top Gun, Anna Belhmer on Braveheart).

On the downside, it is very Hollywood-centric (or perhaps California-centric – at one point George Lucas says “so we relocated to San Francisco” like it was some giant leap for filmmaker kind). But to be fair, the filmmakers did admit in the post-screening Q&A that they wanted it to be much more of an international story but they already had over 200 hours of transcripts just from the US and didn’t have the funds to travel for interviews.

That aside, it would be hard to ask for a better film about this fascinating but obscure subject.
