Behind the sound of 'Transformers'
I know we're harping on and on about the sound team of "Transformers" lately, but hey, it's an exciting race packed with creative and deserving nominees, regardless of the nom tally represented by Greg Russell and Kevin O'Connell.
That said, Russell passed along this bitchin' "Behind the Sound" reel that was created in house for the pic. It really gives you an idea of what went into the work of the sound editors on the team, and there are some nice shots of Russell and O'Connell mixing the tracks with director Michael Bay in the middle, watching it come to life.
Take a look:
Meanwhile, Tom O'Neil has some comments up regarding the Buzzmeter rankings, which have prognozticators taking the dive for "No Country for Old Men" in the Best Sound Mixing category, with "The Bourne Ultimatum" close behind and finall "Transformers" at the #3 spot. He also gets into some of the brief history surrounding O'Connell and Russell, of which I'm sure plenty of you are aware.
