Film sound legends Walter Murch (The Godfather, Apocalypse Now), Ben Burtt (Star Wars, Wall•E), Gary Rydstrom (Jurassic Park, Saving Private Ryan) and Making Waves director Midge Costin join Dolby Institute director Glenn Kiser in conversation before a live audience after the film’s premiere at the Tribeca Film Festival. The wide-ranging discussion touches on the role of subjective sound in creative storytelling, why the sound of Wall•E’s voice made some people cry, and how famed director Francis Ford Coppola uses what he calls “silent take 6.”
