Get ready to be transported into the mind of a master storyteller. Martín Hernández, a two-time Academy Award-nominated sound editor, has worked with the illustrious filmmaker Alejandro G. Iñárritu on his latest and most ambitious film yet, Bardo (aka Bardo, False Chronicle of a Handful of Truths). At the core of every great filmmaker is a simple storyteller’s heart, and Iñárritu’s heart beats with the rhythm of great storytelling. Fittingly enough, Hernández, a long-time friend and collaborator of Iñárritu’s, began his storytelling career in what seemingly might be the unlikeliest of sources — radio and sound design. As the supervising sound editor and mixer, Hernández is one of the best experts in the medium to share with us some insights into how sound can be used to tell the story behind the story. So, let’s dive into the mind of a master storyteller and learn how sound can be used to create a truly immersive cinematic experience.
