Sound Supervisor, Designer and Editor, Kyrsten Mate recording jets for Captain Marvel.

Behind me are members of the Patriots Jet Team and their Aero L-7 Albatross – nice guys! We recorded these in anticipation of the Captain Marvel dogfight scene, the Carol Danvers origin moment.

There is a benefit to recording things just as they are, but I always listen for the sounds that will help convey the story more. Read More.
