(BONUS INFO)
And finally, as a gift to all you filmmakers out there. We tried to put together a "Beginner's Cheat Sheet" to what levels you can aim for when mixing your video, movie, or show.
This is a guideline to start from. Based on multiple forum conversations and interviews, but at the end of the day, the best sound mix is the one that tells your story and helps convey it's theme and emotions, and is always open for creative influence or change, but sometimes it helps to see numbers to get started.
So here you go, can't wait to hear what you make!
