Between the Seasons: Interview with Christopher Plummer, sound designer

In which we explore how the sound design students catapulted the sound for The Mysterious CHIRP out of the galaxy, and Christopher reveals some fun nerdy 'behind the scenes' info on how some sound effects are created!

We also discuss Christopher's sci-fi inspirations and recommendations, how science fiction explores human connection and the possibilities of technology, and the importance of collaboration. Mostly we just nerd out about sound.

This month's non-profit is Michigan Tech University, where our post-production sound design students are!

Short Christopher Bio:

Sound designer, audio engineer, immersive audio installation artist, theatre director, and Professor at Michigan Tech University, and with awards in all those things, Christopher Plummer is somehow one of the kindest, most compassionate people to work with that I've ever known (holly wrote this, not Christopher).

Between the Seasons episodes alternate interviews with single-episode character adventures, and have minimal post-production.

The Mysterious CHIRP theme song is by Ryan Terrell.
