Howdy howdy,
We are proud to announce that If I Had Wings to Fly has reached picture lock! The next step is sound editing.
It feels really good to have what in many ways resembles a completed film. But now, we have to do nothing less that create a soundscape for each and every scene. This means mixing and smoothing all of the music, dialogue, sound effects and ambient noise that we recorded during production, as well as going into the field and into the studio to record more of all of the above. Sound effects recorded in the studio are called Foley, for reasons beyond me. We also may do some automated dialogue replacement (ADR).
We are teaming up with local Asheville sound editor Chris Burbach. He uses the software ProTools; he’ll be working with us to craft a sound mix that does justice to all the great performers who lent their voices and music to the film. We are thrilled to add him to the Kazoo team! Welcome aboard Chris.
On an (even) lighter note, we have some good news to announce! If I Had Wings to Fly actors Forrest Oliphant (Felix) and Dom Flemons (Joe) are getting married this October (not to each other)! Forrest’s wedding will be at the John C. Campbell Folk School, around where much of the film was shot. Congratulations Forrest and Dom!
Love is in the air…..between each of them and their respective fiances.
