‘Barbie,’ ‘Ferrari,’ ‘Oppenheimer’ Among Cinema Audio Society Sound Mixing Noms
Bill Desowitz
Oscar-shortlisted sound contenders “Barbie,” “Ferrari,” “Killers of the Flower Moon,” “Maestro,” and the frontrunning “Oppenheimer” (boasting a massive atomic blast and other creative subatomic and cosmic sounds) were nominated by The Cinema Audio Society (CAS) for sound mixing. The 60th CAS Awards will be held March 2 at the Beverly Hilton.
As previously announced, multi-award-winning sound mixer Joe Earle (“American Horror Story,” “Six Feet Under”), will be honored with the prestigious CAS Career Achievement Award. In addition, five finalists are vying for the Student Recognition Award. The winner will be announced at the awards gala. Also, the CAS will announce its newly elected Board of Directors.
Shortlisted films that didn’t make the cut were “The Creator,” “The Killer,” “Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One,” “Napoleon,” and “The Zone of Interest.” However, they still have a shot with the Motion Picture Sound Editors (MPSE) nominations on January 15. The 71st Annual Golden Reel Awards will be held March 3 at the Wilshire Ebell Theater in Los Angeles.
For animation, the nominees are Pixar’s “Elemental,” Sony’s “Spider-Man: Across the Universe,” Paramount/Nickelodeon’s “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem,” Hayao Miyazaki’s “The Boy and the Heron” (from Studio Ghibli and GKids), and Illumination’s “The Super Mario Brothers Movie.”
The documentary nominations are “32 Sounds,” “American Symphony,” “Little Richard: I Am Everything,” “Still: A Michael J. Fox Movie,” and “Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour.”
Meanwhile, the TV nominees for limited series include “All the Light We Cannot See,” “Beef,” “Black Mirror,” “Daisy Jones & The Six,” and “Weird: The Al Yankovic Story.” The nominees for one-hour series include “Succession,” “Ted Lasso,” “The Crown,” and “The Last of Us.”
