369 - RuPaul's Drag Race

Re-recording mixers Erik Valenzuela & Sal Ojeda join Tonebenders to talk about their wild schedule during audio post on RuPaul's Drag Race. Between them they have combined to work on over 330 episodes of Drag Race, making them experts on reality TV postproduction workflows. Dialog often presents the largest challenges and they have to use every tool they can get their hands on to make the final show sound smooth and clean. We also dig deep into the Rusical (a Rupaul Musical) episodes and the many challenges they present.
