I worked on @panuaaltio.bsky.social's brilliant and inventive music for this first ever Finnish Netflix Original film production!
This is huge! I did a quite lenghty promo interview with @liquidsonics.com about my work on mixing the "Flow" film music by Rihards Zalupe and @gintszilbalodis.bsky.social. It gets a little technical, but has also general insight into the music production process of this Oscar winning feature.
@mikkoraita.bsky.social is a Finnish audio engineer known for his immersive sound mixing on film scores and music projects.
In this interview we talk about his mix of the score for multi-award winning independent animated film Flow which recently won the Oscar for Best Animated Feature Film.
Flow won Best Animation at @theacademyusa.bsky.social!! Music to this unique film mixed by me. Congrats @gintszilbalodis.bsky.social and the whole team!
Can't wait for tonight and the oscars. Best of luck @gintszilbalodis.bsky.social and all of the team, thank you for letting me mix yours and Rihards' amazing music!
Flow won at Cesars! Music mixed by me, on to Oscars...
Trying to figure out how to best showcase my work going forward, especially with the success of #Flow.
Here's a work in progress Yotube playlist, with works from recent years and biased towards orchestral and film music works. I'm currently available for projects, reach out if you'd like to talk!
Flow wins Best Animation at Académie des César! The music by director @gintszilbalodis.bsky.social and Rihards Zalupe mixed by myself. The composers are already on their next adventure onsite preparing for The #Oscars...
