The Los Angeles Section of the Audio Engineering Society (AES ) and the Hollywood Section of the Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers (SMPTE ) will host a joint meeting this month exploring sound editorial for Amazon's new sci-fi anthology series Philip K. Dick's Electric Dreams. The meeting is slated for Tuesday, January 30 at Sony Pictures Studios in Culver City, California.
Based on various writings from author Philip K. Dick, Electric Dreams features ten standalone episodes, each set in a different and unique world - some that lay in the far reaches of the universe, and others that are much closer to home. The series debuted this month on Amazon Prime Video.
The meeting will include a screening of an episode from the series followed by a panel discussion. Panelists will include series Executive Producer Michael Dinner as well as Supervising Sound Editor Mark Lanza (who'll also moderate the discussion), Dialogue Editor Ryne Gierke, Sound Effects Editor Harry Snodgrass and Music Editor Brittany DuBay.
The meeting will be held in Sony Pictures' Kim Novak Theater. It is free and open to AES and SMPTE members and non-members. Doors open at 6:15 p.m. with the screening beginning at 7:15 p.m. Reservations for all persons, including guests, are required no exceptions for entry to the AES/SMPTE event on the Sony Pictures Studios lot.
