Being a Foley Mixer & Editor seems like such an interesting job to have. I’ve always been fascinated by audio jobs and post-audio work so it’s always cool to read an article about someone in the business and their work. I really appreciated the favorite equipment list towards the end - everyone always has their preferences and I think it’s cool to see them. The variety of the work that is done in Foley is really cool, every show (for the absolute most part) needs some kind of sound, right? I also always appreciate career tips in articles, and this one had plenty. I’m slowly compiling a list of programs I want to learn over the coming years and ProTools has been underscored. Hearing about how her career has grown over the years is definitely interesting, and I really hope that after (and during college) I have the opportunity to explore different areas that I’m interested in overall.
