This month we’re proud to have Sandy Berman, a world renowned sound designer who has spent the last 25 years literally redefining the art of sound in motion pictures. Unless you’re enrolled in our Pro Tools Program, you probably don’t get very many chances to gain insights into the often-neglected but immensely important world of sound design– so don’t miss this opportunity to hear from an audio pro.
Sandy Berman is responsible for some of the most innovative and creative uses of the medium in a wide variety of films such as “THE PRINCESS BRIDE”, “GET SMART“,“BEDAZZLED“,“SCARY MOVIE“,“DOUBLE JEOPARDY“,“ANALYZE THIS“,“ALADDIN“,“TOMBSTONE“,“HOT SHOTS!“, “JAWS 3“ & “JFK“ (for which he received the British academy award) to name but a few.
He just completed sound design work on the feature films, “OBSERVE & REPORT” & “PUBLIC ENEMIES” and he also was the picture editor on John Mellencamp’s new video “A RIDE BACK HOME”.
He has provided the sound design for the theater productions of “INTO THE WOODS” & “THE WAY OF THE WISEGUY” written & directed by “Crash” writer Bobby Moresco.
Sandy is also an accomplished musician who has played & recorded with a diverse list of artists such as Bruce Springsteen, James Brown, Chuck Berry, Hall & Oates, Junior Walker, Jerry Lee Lewis, Duane Eddy & even “Weird Al” Yankovic .
He serves on both the Executive Committee & the Rules Committee of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences, is a voting member of the National Academy of Recording Arts & Sciences & is a past president of the Motion Picture Sound Editors. He currently lives in Los Angeles.
“Pizza & Post” is a great opportunity to gain new insights, ask a few questions, network with your post-production peers, and as always, eat a lot of pizza.
