Sound

Re-Recording Mixer playbook.

Balances everything audio in the final mix — dialogue, music, and effects — so every line is intelligible.

What this role owns

Sound Designer · Composer

First move

Mix for a phone speaker first — that's how most people will actually hear it.

Titles are usually given to whoever's already doing the work — if that's you, say so.

Also in Sound

Owns audio on set — responsible for dialogue that's actually usable in the edit.

Holds the mic where it needs to be — close enough to catch dialogue, out of every frame.

Builds the sound that wasn't recorded on the day — atmosphere and effects that make a scene feel real.

Writes the original music — the score that tells the audience how to feel before the story does.
