The Motion Picture Sound Editors presented the 67th MPSE Annual Golden Reel Awards on January 19 at a black-tie ceremony at the Bonaventure Hotel in Los Angeles. Golden Reel Awards recognizing outstanding achievement in sound editing were presented in 23 categories encompassing feature films, long-form and short-form television, animation, documentaries, games, special venue and other media.
Academy Award-nominated producer (Little Women) Amy Pascal presented the 2020 MPSE Filmmaker Award to Marvel Studios Executive Vice President of Production Victoria Alonso (with re-recording mixer Kevin O'Connell and supervising sound editor Steven Ticknor as honorary presenters). The 2020 MPSE Career Achievement Award was presented to Academy Award-winning supervising sound editor Cecelia Cece Hall by two-time Academy Award-winning supervising sound editor Stephen H. Flick.
The opening address was given by MPSE President-Elect Mark Lanza. This is an exciting time for film, television, and games, he said. Business models, formats, and distribution are all changing. Original scripted TV shows have set a record in 2019. There were 532 original shows this year. This number is expected to surge in 2020. Our editors and supervisors are paving the way and making our product and the user experience better every year.
Presenters included Grammy Award-winning recording artist Melissa Manchester, actors Nadia Gray, Michael Nardelli and Valery Ortiz, directors Michael Angelo Covino and Janina Gavankar, Avid Technology CEO Jeff Rosica, game creative director Stig Asmussen, Cinema Audio Society (CAS) president Karol Urban, EIPMA president Bernard Weiser, Vaughn Film Festival co-founder and chair Antonio Ienco, Eleven Ninety One Entertainment creative director Alex Lappano, and Hollywood Reporter tech editor Carolyn Giardina.
