Sound Mixing<br />
Craig Mann<br />
Craig Mann is a re-recording Mixer in Los Angeles, California. With over 15 years of sound industry experience under his belt,<br />
Craig’s work can be heard on a number of blockbusters, including Insidious, Eye In The Sky, Marshall, Annabelle: Creation, Dope<br />
and Gold starring Matthew McConaughey. He was recently awarded an AMPS award for Best Sound in a Feature Film, a Satellite<br />
Award for Best Sound, a BAFTA for Best Sound and an Academy Award for Best Sound Mixing for the film Whiplash.<br />
After completing the Music Engineering program on Music Industry Arts from Fanshawe College in London Ontario, Craig was hired<br />
at Sound Ideas, where he began recording and editing sound effects. While working there, sound for film aroused his interest, and he<br />
joined Casablanca Sound in Toronto. There, he worked as an assistant to several of the top re-recording mixers in Canada. After five<br />
years there, an opportunity arose to tour several sound facilities in Los Angeles. Craig realized that moving to the next level would<br />
involve a change of venue. He relocated to Santa Monica and was hired at Todd-AO. Over the next eight years, Craig served as an<br />
apprentice for several world-renowned re-recording mixers, soon taking the leap into mixing himself in 2009.<br />
Discovering new ways to utilize sound to help bring filmmakers’ vision to the screen is what Craig loves most about his job.<br />
