Did you watch The Sound Of Metal? This film had a unique challenge in sound in film. Sound is an essential element of any film that chooses to use it, but it’s especially important to Sound Of Metal.  Starring Riz Ahmed as Ruben, the drummer for a heavy-metal band whose world is turned inside out by sudden and dramatic hearing loss, the film puts you inside the character’s head so you experience his new reality along with him.  

Join Oscar winner and LAFS Spotlight Inductee, Philip Bladh breaks down the sound in the film and how he worked with the director and sound team to create the immersive sound design to create a unique, empathetic viewing experience. You won’t want to miss this masterclass.
