Sound comes to us over time. You don’t get a snapshot of sound. Therefore, what you notice with sound, the essential building block, is change.
Gary RydstromIf we do our jobs well and throw in a little evangelizing, we can make sound as important a part of filmmaking as it should be.
Gary RydstromThere's no excuse for having a mental or creative block in sound. You can just go out and collect things in the real world - they make the sound, not you. It's very restricting to always use a library for sound effects. It's much more interesting and freeing to go out and record new sounds because you never know what you're going to get.
