Recently mixed 2 days of reshoots on a TV series. Only 2 days, but had club scenes with music, a scene in a cybertruck and even free driving with the vehicle. Typically, those are some of the more "challenging" types of scenes, but had great support from my team and production. Made it much easier.

Just watched At Eternity’s Gate for the first time. Besides the wonderful performance by Willem Dafoe and the images that seemed to remarkably echo Van Gogh’s paintings and colors, the use of overdubbed dialogue, sometimes doubled and tripled, had a very interesting effect.

Last week, I was in Barcelona and was able to go to L'Auditori for a wonderful concert by the Barcelona Symphony Orchestra: Ravel, a national premiere of a work by Streich, an impromptu trumpet-cello-bass trio and the highlight for me, Sibelius' 5th symphony.

Three things:
1. This is a nonsense inquiry and basically all this Trump minion has got. Not impressed.
2. NPR gets less than 1 percent of direct funding from the feds. This will impact local stations, which have broad support.
3. Brendan is an unctuous toady.

Morning commute was full of trying to explain to a 10-year old how shooting more frames per second meant slow motion and less frames meant fast motion. Ended up with using music notation as an analogy. I might have dropped him off at school more confused.

One of my college professors gave us an assignment to sit in a space for 15 minutes and then write down all of the sounds that we heard. It was a fascinating way to learn about the sonic markings of a place. It was also very meditative. Sometimes I think about trying to find time to do that more.

One of the challenges in mixing a scene that I really enjoy is something I like to think of as “getting to the boom.” At least that’s what I call it in my head. Basically, it’s the practice of mixing wires for the first few lines of a scene before letting the boom be the only mic in the mix.

I purchased a new (used) Schoeps CMIT. This one is my 4th but it’s the oldest one I now own. All of the other 3 were purchased in 2009 and this one’s serial number is much lower than any of those. My first question to the shop selling it was if had any repair history and they confirmed it did not.
