The Motion Picture Sound Editors presented the 68th Annual MPSE Golden Reel Awards at a fully-virtual, international ceremony on April 16. Golden Reel Awards recognizing outstanding achievement in sound editing were presented in 22 categories encompassing feature films, long-form and short-form television, animation, documentaries, games, special venue, and other media.
Academy Award -winning Re-Recording Mixer Chris Jenkins presented the MPSE Filmmaker Award to Mad Max Director George Miller. The MPSE Career Achievement Award, honoring Supervising Sound Editor Dennis Drummond, was presented by three-time Academy Award -nominated Re-Recording Mixer David Giammarco. (Drummond's award was accepted by his brother, Patrick Drummond.)
The opening address was given by MPSE President Mark Lanza who invoked the challenges and benefits in hosting the ceremony remotely. While I'm sure you will love the virtual experience, the show's true purpose is to honor the nominated projects and the artists who crafted them, he said. In person or virtual, a Golden Reel Award is just as coveted. We congratulate the nominees and winners tonight as we recognize the best in sound over the past year.
Acclaimed voice actors Kelly Stables and David Cowgill hosted the event. Category awards were presented by sound professionals from around the world, including Australia (Wayne Pashley, Libby Villa, Derryn Pasquill), China (Jianxi Zhang, Yang Jiang, Zhao Nan), Mexico (Jaime Baksht, Michelle Couttolenc, Javier Umpierrez), Los Angeles, (Brian Slack, Bernard Weiser, Nancy Cartwright), India (Baylon Fonseca, Karan Singh, Vijay Rathinam) and Russia (Aleksey Sinitsyn, Dmitriy Kliminov).
