CAS Screening of Ford v Ferrari
and Panel on Mixing Car Chases
On August 20, CAS offered members and guests an
opportunity to gather at the Dolby Vine Screening Room to
enjoy a 4K Atmos screening of Ford v Ferrari and a panel on
mixing car chases. Attendees were received with a reception
of light fare.
After enjoying the film, a panel of experts, moderated by
Stephen Tibbo CAS, discussed the technical and creative
logistics of mixing an impactful and engaging high-energy car
chase. Re-recording mixers Paul Massey CAS (2022 CAS
Career Achievement recipient) and David Giammarco CAS
reflected on their dubbing techniques on Ford v Ferrari. They
explained their approach to retaining audience engagement
through more extended scenes and the importance of
balancing frequencies to allow for moments within the
chase. At the same time, production mixer Peter J. Devlin
CAS (2023 Career Achievement recipient) reflected on the
change in technology over his years recording car chases.
He emphasized how technical creativity and flexibility are
paramount to capturing dialogue successfully. A full video of
