Managing Audio Workflow
Workflow is the key to 21st century cinema. Planning it, Managing it, Wrangling it, Customizing it. Where once workflow was consistent and predictable we now live and work in an age of near infinate production posisbility. No two movies are made quite the same way. And whilst it's easy to see the importance of workflow planning in terms of visual edit and effects and grading, audio is often neglected.

Part 3- This episode focuses on how multitrack recordings are used in picture
editing and how these decisions are passed on to the audio department.
Part 4 - Programme four examines changes in ADR recording and editing technology.
Part 5 - This, the final episode in the series, is a wrap-up of where we stand today with motion picture and television audio workflows. How have changes in technology changed the lives of audio professionals?
