- Abstract
- This paper outlines the tools and means that are at the disposal of the motion picture production mixer to enable him to fulfill his prime responsibility of being the director's assistant in all matters pertaining to sound. A parallel is drawn between the work of the soundman and the cameraman. Particular emphasis is placed on the artistic capabilities and qualifications required by the mixer to ensure the degree of confidence and co-operation that must exist among the soundman, the director, and the cast in order that sound may contribute its full share to the realistic quality of the final product.
