Tonebenders Podcast

Supervising Sound Editor Laia Casanovas flew in from Spain to join Tonebenders in front of a packed theatre in Toronto. Laia shows real enthusiasm while talking about her Oscar nominated sound work on Sirāt. She discusses "worldizing" the music featured in the film to match the homemade sound systems depicted on screen, as well as the role wind sounds plays to ramp up tension and how the vehicle's engines presented unexpected audio problems for Laia and her team to solve. Listeners in LA, don't forget to come out to the 4th Annual Tonebenders' Los Angeles Sound Design Meet-up, Presented by The Motion Picture Sound Editors. This Thursday, March 5th 2026, 7pm. We will be at All Season Brewery (800 S La Brea Ave) in Hollywood. I hope to see you there. ______SPONSORS: Great sound leads to great storytelling.
