We welcome back to the SuperMeet stage after a four-year absence, three-time Academy Award-winning picture and sound editor, Walter Murch - for an engaging talk on "Moviola Metaphysics: Why we do what we do, why it's important, and how we can do it better."
Walter Murch has been editing pictures and mixing sound in Hollywood since starting on Francis Ford Coppola’s film The Rain People (1969). He co-wrote, sound-edited and mixed George Lucas’s THX-1138 (1971), and then supervised the sound editing on The Godfather (1972), sound-edited and mixed American Graffiti (1973) and The Godfather: Part II (1974), got his first Academy Award nomination and won a double BAFTA for picture editing and mixing The Conversation (1974), won his first Oscar for Apocalypse Now (1979), and an unprecedented double Oscar for sound and film editing for his work on The English Patient (1996). He reconstructed Touch of Evil (1958) to Orson Welles’ original notes, and edited and mixed The Talented Mr. Ripley (1999), K-19 (2002), Cold Mountain (2003), and Jarhead (2005). In 2013 he edited and mixed Mark Levinson’s feature documentary Particle Fever on the search for the elusive Higgs boson. His latest film is Brad Bird’s Tomorrowland, released in May of 2015. Mr. Murch was, along with George Lucas and Francis Ford Coppola, a founding member of Northern California cinema. Mr. Murch has written and directed - Return to Oz (1985) - but as an editor and sound designer, he is one of the few universally acknowledged masters in his field. For his work on the film Apocalypse Now (1979), Walter coined the term “sound designer”, created the now-standard 5.1 sound mixing format, and along with colleagues such as Ben Burtt, helped to elevate the art and impact of film sound to a new level.
