00:00What sound adds to picture is so exhilarating.
00:13It's really half the movie.
00:17Movie's silent sound.
00:18You only express it with silent sound.
00:22The point is to convey an emotion.
00:31Film sound is an illusionary art.
00:38Sound in many ways is more tied to imagination.
00:43Film sound work wasn't always like that, with dozens of sound editors editing thousands
00:48of tracks.
00:49When it all started, movies were silent.
00:53Then in 1927, they actually recorded dialogue on the set, and of course it was a gigantic
01:02sensation.
01:05Sound was taking root in a new American renaissance of movies, in a way that had never been heard
01:09before.
01:10We were exploring the unknown.
01:15It's been very valuable in the evolution of humans' relationship to the cosmos.
01:24Your job is to come up with the unimaginable.
01:29You want the audience to feel the pain.
01:34Sound is still the best way to experience emotion.
01:37It's part of being human.
01:44When you feel those goosebumps, then you've done it right.
01:47It's the single most labor-intensive editing process I've ever experienced.
01:53The work you all do makes these moments eternal.
02:07Thank you.
