The Sound Design of 'Toy Story' is All About Balance

Home Columns Movies Meg Shields November 2, 2020Listen up: when you're building a world from the perspective of toys, sound design is critical. Welcome to The Queue — your daily distraction of curated video content sourced from across the web. Today, we’re watching an exploration of the sound design of Pixar’s Toy Story. The Academy Awards for Best Sound Design and Best Sound Mixing have long been a confusing part of the Oscars ceremony. What’s the difference between the two categories? Not a lot of viewers knew. Bluntly put: a sound mixer is in charge of how you hear a film; a sound editor is in charge of what you hear in a film. But you’d be forgiven for not being able to suss out the difference for yourself. There’s an un-said trend that “good” sound design and mixing should immerse you to the point that it goes unnoticed. This can make it difficult to tell design and mixing apart. More importantly, it can obfuscate the films that take a more expressionistic and creative approach to sound-based storytelling. For a great example of a film that foregrounds sound, we can look at Pixar‘s first feature film, Toy Story. As designed by Gary Rydstrom, the 1995 animated feature’s use of sound endows a sense of personality into each and every character, setting, and isolated emotional moment without distracting us from the dialogue or the core of the film’s narrative. Moreover, as the video essay below underlines, the Toy Story sound design (which was not nominated in either sound Oscar category) is so successful because it’s a balancing act: between the exaggerated and the realistic; between the small and the gargantuan; and between the literal and the subjective. Sound in Toy Story impresses a sense of scale that puts us in the cowboy boots of our…

Antifa: Rise of the Black Flags, a newly published documentary from Citizen Journalism Network, has been censored on both YouTube and Vimeo just hours after it was uploaded.The documentary chronicles the rise of the far-left militant group, Antifa, which politicians like Joe Biden have dismissed as “just an idea,” delving into the group’s rise to prominence following the election of Donald Trump and its impact on politics in the United States. The documentary sheds light on the short-lived Antifa "autonomous zone" in Seattle and the group's ties to terror-designated militant organizations in Syria. A trailer of Antifa remains available to watch on YouTube.The documentary features an overview of Antifa by conservative firebrand Jack Posobiec, and features interviews with journalists, activists, and others familiar with the far-left movement, including Raheem Kassam, David Reaboi, and The Post Millennial’s own Libby Emmons.The video was taken down from YouTube and Vimeo just hours after it went live on Saturday night, which informed its producers that the video was removed for violating the sites’ guidelines.“You cannot upload videos that depict extreme violence,” Vimeo stated.Vimeo censorshipJack Posobiec offered comment to The Post Millennial in response to the censorship of the documentary.“Social media companies will do anything to shut down serious discussion of Antifa,” said Posobiec.  “There are voices from all across the political spectrum in this, as well as former Antifa members. All of the clips we use are from news broadcasts and verified sources, there is nothing extreme. Most can be found right on YouTube on much bigger channels hosted without even a strike.

Rockdale County refinances debt for water and sewerage system

Rockdale County is refinancing debt related to the water and sewerage system to create savings for the county. Rockdale County’s Water and Sewerage Revenue Bonds Series 2020 was assigned the Aa2 rating by the Moody’s Rating Agency, the county announced today (Oct. 29). This is a favorable rating for a first-time water and sewerage bond presented by the County. The Moody’s Agency Report states: Rockdale County’s Water and Sewerage (Aa2) credit profile incorporates the strong financial and operating trends such as a healthy liquidity position and adequate debt service coverage ratios, which are supported by regular rate increases and long-range financial planning. The credit profile also reflects the authority’s ample supply and treatment capacity, mostly residential customer base with slightly below average wealth levels, rate setting flexibility and manageable debt burden. Satisfactory legal protections include a closed-loop flow of funds and 125% additional bonds test and rate covenant. The credit strengths highlighted in the report – ample reserves and liquidity, manageable debt burden, strong rate setting policies and covenants – resulted in guaranteed debt being taken off the County backing by bonds, officials said. The county issued new bonds to pay off older, higher-interest bonds resulting in a savings of $2.8 million, officials said. “This is a big day for Rockdale County and our residents,” said Rockdale Board of Commissioners’ Chairman Oz Nesbitt, Sr. s “These savings are due to the hard work of the County executive staff and the support of the Board of Commissioners.” For more information, the on-demand recording of the Called Meeting for the Water and Sewerage Revenue Bond can be viewed at the Rockdale County Facebook Page at facebook.com/rockdalegov or on Vimeo at vimeo.com/rockdalegov.
