Seamless Sound Design

In this exclusive SoundWorks Collection sound profile we talk with Director Pete Docter and Producer Jonas Rivera and Supervising Sound Editor Shannon Mills from Skywalker Sound about their work on Pixar's Inside Out. Growing up can be a bumpy road, and it's no exception for Riley, who is uprooted from her Midwest life when her father starts a new job in San Francisco. Like all of us, Riley is guided by her emotions – Joy (Amy Poehler), Fear (Bill Hader), Anger (Lewis Black), Disgust (Mindy Kaling) and Sadness (Phyllis Smith). The emotions live in Headquarters, the control center inside Riley’s mind, where they help advise her through everyday life. As Riley and her emotions struggle to adjust to a new life in San Francisco, turmoil ensues in Headquarters. Although Joy, Riley's main and most important emotion, tries to keep things positive, the emotions conflict on how best to navigate a new city, house and school.

Generally when I watch a movie, it's really hard for me to only enjoy the story because I get super busy listening to the sound levels, how they designed it, what kind of sound effects are there etc. but with this animation I totally forgot about all those details that I pay really close attention to.. This animation was hands down one of the best sound design works I had a chance to experience. Highly recommended!
