Netflix’s Lost in Space series, a remake of the 1965 television show, is a playground for sound.

“There were so many fun things in the show for sound. From the first episode with the ship crash and it sinking into the glacier to the black hole sequence and the Robot fight in the season finale. The show had a lot of different challenges and a lot of opportunities for sound.”

#4for4 Emmy nominations in Outstanding Sound Editing

424 Post congratulates the Black Sails sound team, led by Ben Cook, on their fourth consecutive Emmy nomination for the series.

Entering the fourth and final season of Black Sails, the sound team had garnered three nominations and two Emmys already... making the odds of getting a fourth nod slim, amongst the dense scape of high quality TV shows that grows even as we speak.

Benjamin Cook, Stefan Henrix, Mike Szakmeister, Shaugnessy Hare, Tim Tuchrello, Brett Voss, Michael Baber, Jeffrey Wilhoit & Dylan Tuomy-Wilhoit beat the odds, and proved that if you maintain integrity, the attention to detail, and the highest levels of creativity, then odds don't matter... and talent will always be recognized.

#Twenty-Won

Congratulations to our good friend and colleague, Kevin O'Connell, on his well deserved OSCAR.

With 21 nominations, Kevin's body of work speaks for itself, and his work on Hacksaw Ridge is yet another example of his amazing talent and why he's truly an icon of our industry.

We, at 424 Post, are proud to have shared so many credits with Kevin and look forward to our future collaborations.

The sound of sensory overload for Cinemax’s ‘Outcast’

While hitting the details is Ben Cook’s m.o. anyway — as evidenced by his Emmy-nominated sound editing on Black Sails — it serves a double purpose in Outcast. When people are possessed in the world of Outcast, we imagine that they are more in tune with the micro details of the human experience. Every touch and every movement makes a sound.
