No wonder SFX almost disappeared around 1920 and film went music-only for 7 years.
Maybe history repeats if enough young directors read the Elfman article? |
From what year was that-
FX were horribly difficult to technically manage on the re-recording consoles of the time- And to take such a pov would be very restrictive creatively. the console Gone With The Wind was re-recorded on, I believe had 18 channels. And there was no automation, or punching. The whole reel went down as a performance. So the tuning of fx that we take for granted today was out of the question then.
