We are joined by 5 members of the sound team from The Lord Of The Rings: The Fellowship Of The Ring. They walk us through their memories of working on this influential film, the sounds they created and the impact this experience had on their careers. Tim Nielsen (Sound Effects Editor), Katy Wood (Assistant Effects Editor, Foley Editor, Sound Effects Recordist), Brent Burge (Sound Effects Editor), David Farmer (Sound Designer) and Chris Boyes (Re-Recording Mixer) have lots of stories to share and have clear bonds that have lasted through the years.
