      I didn't get the joke about Up! but my personal opinion of the film is I didn't like it... the whole message of the thing is messed up, vindictive nonsense. I do like most Pixar films but this one, it's bad.
      When Steve Jobs brought down the iPad tablet and sold it as somehow completely new and "transformative", and then featured Up, he lost the last bit of credibility he still had for me.

      @@SebBrosig The joke about the whole Up thing isn't even about Up. It's about how Mr.Potato Jet himself looks like the kid from Up. It's been a running joke for the channel

    It’s as though Alex was made in a lab to teach audio… his poise, pace and candor are exquisite.
    He has a gift for conveying ideas with perfect economy; distilling complex issues to their essence.
    Bravo 👏🏻

    Wow. Never would’ve thought I’d spend half an hour watching a video on sound design. But this was amazing! As someone constantly trying to be better as a video producer for my on channel, this was extremely informative and helpful. Great job editing too and putting visual ques to assist in understanding some of these concepts 🙏🏽

    You know what’s so funny… I’m actually an audio engineer (although I haven’t worked in the field in some time), and I totally forgot about the concept of room tone. It really is SO helpful when something is dialogue heavy to capture room tone!
