I just came back from a much needed vacation in Taiwan, and look what great news I received! 3 projects I’ve worked on have been nominated for the Best Soundtrack Award in the 1st Singapore Short Film Awards. The nominees are:
*Dirty Bitch (Foley Artist)
*Threshold (Sound Mixer)
*Newton (Co-Sound Designer/Mixer)
The Karma Of The Tree Sentinel Who Awakes
This award is such a great initiative. Finally an award in Singapore that puts the spotlight on us sound guys! We’re more often than not only heard and not seen. All the other awards have a recipient’s name attached to it, except for Best Soundtrack. I’m assuming it’s awarded collectively to everyone that helped made the film sound good – composers, designers, mixers, location sound recordists etc.
In any case, I’m super thrilled! The Awards Ceremony is going to be held on 31st January 2010. For more information, please visit the Singapore Short Film Awards website here.
