Interview With Sound Editor Thomas Hilton

Weaving the Past Sound Editor Thomas Hilton shares some of the inspiration and techniques he uses to create a sound design that “holds up” the images without interfering with them.

Through sound, Thomas creates an emotional foundation for Weaving the Past that invisibly guides the audience to “feel” the picture on screen. From hurried footsteps and distant echoing gunfire to something as simple as the buzzing of a fly these sounds create a world that exists outside the frame of the screen and really bring the viewer into the moment.
