IT'S ALIVE! Ja, Hjørnet lever - tro det eller ej. Tiden er knap, men ambitionerne store som altid, og således er det lykkes os at fange en af de HELT store krabater. Vi kan nemlig byde på en dybdegående og djeligt nørdet samtale med en af de danske filmkunstnere, som er blevet en regulær spiller i Hollywood – nemlig Mikael Salomon. Med en karriere, der spænder over seks årtier og tæller alt fra imponerende kameraarbejde på film som The Abyss, Far and Away og Pas på ryggen, professor! til instruktørposter på store TV-serier som Band of Brothers, er Mikael et navn, der fortjener at blive anerkendt både herhjemme og internationalt. Episoden tager dig med på en tur gennem hans karriere, hvor vi dykker ned i både de ikoniske blockbusters og de mere ukendte perler. Fra hans tidlige start som filmfotograf i Danmark til de spektakulære og teknisk komplekse Hollywood-produktioner, han senere blev kendt for, ser vi nærmere på de kunstneriske valg og tekniske præstationer, der har gjort ham til en af verdens mest respekterede filmfotografer og instruktører. Vi undersøger, hvordan Mikael navigerede overgangen fra det analoge til det digitale og formåede at fastholde sin visuelle signatur, samtidig med at han tilpassede sig et hastigt skiftende medielandskab. I begyndelsen fokusrer vi på, hvordan Mikael først gjorde sig bemærket i Danmark, inden vi følger ham over Atlanten og videre til Hollywood. Her tager vi et grundigt kig på nogle af de film og serier, hvor hans visuelle flair virkelig fik lov at skinne igennem. Det inkluderer naturligvis The Abyss, hvor hans arbejde under vandet satte nye standarder for, hvad der var muligt inden for filmfotografi, og Backdraft, hvor de intense flammekoreografier krævede ekstrem præcision og teknisk dygtighed. Vi diskuterer også Mikaels skift til instruktørrollen, hvor han blandt andet var med til at skabe og instruere en af de bedste og mest elskede mini-serier nogensinde i Band of Brothers. Her reflekterer vi over, hvordan hans baggrund som filmfotograf har påvirket hans instruktørstil og de valg, han træffer bag kameraet. Hvordan skaber man for eksempel intensitet og spænding i en TV-serie på samme niveau som en spillefilm? Og hvordan forener man sine kreative visioner med de produktionsmæssige begrænsninger, som TV-mediet ofte stiller? Selvfølgelig kommer vi heller ikke uden om at tale om de udfordringer, han har stået overfor undervejs. Det er en branche præget af store egoer og endnu større budgetter, og Mikael har måtte navigere i dette minefelt samtidig med, at han har fastholdt sin kunstneriske integritet. Han fortæller og tænker højt om, hvordan han har håndteret alt dette og alligevel formået at levere solide og visuelt spektakulære produktioner, som ikke bare har imponeret publikum, men også kollegaer og kritikere verden over. Så læn dig tilbage, gør dig klar til en rejse gennem Mikael Salomons bemærkelsesværdige karriere, og bliv klogere på en af Danmarks mest succesfulde filmkunstnere i udlandet. Vi håber, du vil nyde denne episode lige så meget, som vi har nydt at lave den, så rigtig god fornøjelse! Med venlig hilsen, Casper, Brie & Mikael

I've lost count of the number of recordings I've had to pause or abandon because a lawnmower, siren, or enthusiastic dog has fancied getting in on the act.Back when we ran our podcast production service, clients regularly sent over audio that was full of distracting background noises. Not the ongoing hum of an AC unit or the gentle ambience of a cafe, but things like door slams, annoying desk tapping, or phones ringing.Then came the inevitable question, “Can you just edit that out?” followed by a patient explanation from our end that the noise was happening underneath the vocals, so if one was cut out, the other would be, too.Sure, spectral view tools and earlier iterations of iZotope RX were still exceptionally powerful. But I could never truly strip out a noise from underneath a conversation without it sounding like it was recorded underwater.And this isn't just about noise. Reverb has always been notoriously hard to remove from voice recordings. On top of that, if one person sounded very obviously off-mic, it was impossible to bring them “on-mic” in post.But in 2024, audio software has suddenly evolved to the point where almost anything is possible. Reverb is no longer a huge issue, it can correct poor mic technique, and most background noise – even the intermittent stuff – can be removed without many folks being able to tell it was ever there in the first place.The beauty of this, too, is that the software often does it automatically. There's no need to tweak any settings or go through the trial and error of more traditional Noise Reduction tools. Experienced audio pros might consider this lack of control, but remember – most podcasters are not audio pros.A great real-world example of this sorcery in action was our recent Podcraft episode on Podcasting 2.0 with Sam Sethi. I recorded the conversation outside The Podcast Show event in London, and several fire engines hurried past as we talked. I'm not sure what was going on, but maybe they took the LIT tag a bit too literally…Anyway, this wasn't a deal breaker for the audio – the conversation was still audible. It could have been briefly distracting, but this is often the nature of on-location audio in urban areas. In a moment of curiosity rather than expectation, I ran it through Alitu, and was amazed to hear that the software had completely stripped out all the background noise. On top of that, you definitely couldn't tell we were sharing a mic or even recording outdoors at all!Sam commented on this in episode 81 of the Podnews Weekly Review and was kind to credit me for my production skills. But in truth, all I did was upload the source file. It's incredible to hear how far audio software has come. So many recordings that would once have been considered unfixable now have the capability to be transformed into studio-quality conversations.So, does that mean we can finally drop the ‘silk purse sow's ear' metaphor? Is “you can't fix it in the post” obsolete advice? Is striving to record good, clean source material just an unnecessary barrier to content creation?You can probably make convincing arguments about the above, but before folks throw out their foam tiles, shock mounts, and general audio standards, here's a countercase.Why You Should Still Record Good Clean Source Material (When Possible)If software can probably fix it, why worry about it in the first place?Good Enough Audio, or Great Audio?Whilst modern audio software can remove, repair, and rebuild bad audio, it can also enhance, polish, and optimise good audio. Taking some care to feed in the best source material possible can help your show become one of the best-sounding in your niche.Check out this case study from Lindsay's piece on What Podcasts Do for Your Brain:Study participants listened to two-to-three-minute interviews from NPR's Science Friday with altered sound quality. Co-author Eryn Newman said, “As soon as we reduced the audio quality, all of a sudden, the scientists and their research lost credibility.” Newman and Schwarz found that as soon as material required extra effort on the part of the participants, they trusted it less. Respondents rated clear information as more reliable. Software Isn't FoolproofAudio software can do increasingly amazing things, but don't rely on it to fix everything. Just because you have a smoke alarm in your house doesn't mean you'll rely on it to tell you if the toast is burning (though, if you do, at least you know you can probably edit the noise out of your recordings!).Recording Clean Source Material Isn't Difficult…says the guy who recorded a podcast interview on the set of Backdraft. But this isn't about perfectionism, and you definitely have a lot more grace when recording in the great unpredictable outdoors.Good practices are as simple as choosing a room with a decent amount of soft furnishings, getting close enough to your mic, and logging out of Slack or Discord. Don't be that podcaster recording in their bathroom, six feet away from their Omnidirection-set Blue Yeti. Software might make it sound a little better, but that's nothing to be proud of.The Danger of Slipping StandardsIf you no longer care about the quality of your source material, what message does that send to the part of your brain that insists, “I take podcasting seriously”? What other corners might you then start to cut in the planning and content side of things? One day you're dropping a crisp packet in the street; the next day, you're fly-tipping a mattress. Beware the slippery slope, is all I'm saying.Summary: Software as a Safety NetIt's brilliant that audio software can fix so many issues for us now. It makes podcasting so much more accessible. There's no getting around it that you'll make mistakes with your audio in the early days. Ten years ago, some of these mistakes would've warranted complete re-records, but not now.Even more experienced creators aren't immune to the odd suboptimal recording. Sometimes, I'm not as diligent as I could be. Other times, I'm at the mercy of an outdoor environment and all the sounds that come along with it. It's great to know that, with one click, I can fix it in post. I'll never rely on it to do my job for me, but I'm glad to know it has my back.If you'd like to check out Alitu, which was the software used in this case study, you can sign up for a free trial and begin using it right away. Of course, other great podcast editing tools are available, too, so check out our roundup if you'd like to do some shopping around.

Chicago firefighting brothers Stephen (Kurt Russell) and Brian (William Baldwin) have been rivals since childhood. Brian, struggling to prove himself, transfers to the arson unit. There he aids Don (Robert De Niro) in his investigation into a spate of fires involving oxygen-induced infernos called backdrafts. But when a conspiracy implicating a crooked politician and an arsonist leads Brian back to Stephen, he is forced to overcome his brotherly competitiveness in order to crack the case.

Backdraft is a 1991 American film that's part crime thriller, part family drama, part love story, part bildungsroman, and part macho bullshit directed by Ron Howard and written by Gregory Widen. The stacked cast features Kurt Russell, William Baldwin, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Scott Glenn, Rebecca De Mornay, Robert De Niro, J. T. Walsh, and the late great Donald Sutherland. The film is about two estranged firefighter brothers who dodge flaming buildings and family therapy alike while unraveling an arson conspiracy hotter than their sibling rivalry.

Mark and John Leavengood (@MFFhorrorcorner on X)  discuss the 1991 action drama Backdraft. Directed by Ron Howard, and starring Kurt Russell, Robert De Niro, William Baldwin and some angry fire, the movie jams about eight plotlines into a single movie and still works really well. In this episode, they also talk about Kurt Rusell's hair, Ron Howard's filmography, and rewatchable movies. Enjoy!

Is it getting hot in here? It is! We're talking about firefighters this week — arguably the best of the hero(in)es in uniform because, let's face it, there's something pretty sexy about someone who will run into flames to save a stranger…let alone to save you. We're talking about primordial firefighters, about patriarchy (obviously), about the difference between city firefighters and smoke jumpers, and about about the nature of a love interest who puts themself in danger for a living. All that, and they can dead lift you, too. Our first read along of 2024 is Natalie Caña's A Dish Best Served Hot. Find it at Amazon, B&N, Apple Books, Kobo or your local indie.

Sarah and Susie are fresh off their Denver reunion, and ready for more candy for their brains. We start with a discussion about Milli Vanilli, the lip-synching duo from the 90s, who were exposed and exiled from the charts. Susie learned a lot more details about their careers that shed some light on why they did it, why the music industry was in on it, and the vitriol that followed. We hear Susie's connection to the group. We learn about a tarantula that almost caused a car crash and Susie is mad that he's still living his best life. We discuss "siren clubs" that are happening among Pacific Islanders in New Zealand and the debate about how to handle their noisy "cultural" expressions. We hear why fire is so hard to make in CGI, and why Sarah believes the hit film, Backdraft contributes to her fear of fire to this day.Join our Candy Club, shop our merch, sign-up for our free newsletter, & more by visiting The Brain Candy Podcast website: https://www.thebraincandypodcast.comConnect with us on social media:BCP Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastSusie's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterSarah's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBCP Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/braincandypodSusie's Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/susie_meisterSarah's Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/ImSarahRiceSponsors:For Green Chef's best deal of the year, get $250 off with code braincandy250 at https://www.greenchef.com/braincandy250Get started at https://www.chime.com/braincandyThis episode is sponsored by BetterHelp.
