Dolby Labs have just announced that all of the films nominated for an Oscar in the Achievement in Sound Editing and Achievement in Sound Mixing categories used at least one Dolby technology in the process.

This is the 32nd year in which films released with Dolby technology have earned an Oscar nomination. The technologies include Dolby Digital and Dolby Digital Surround EX as formats for the audio release.

The films include Avatar, The Hurt Locker, Inglourious Basterds, Star Trek, Up and Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen.

It is gratifying to know that out post sound utilises both Dolby Digital and Dolby Pro Logic II systems, although we have yet to be nominated for an Oscar there is always the possibility!

out post uses Neyrink SurroundCode for Dolby Digital within Pro Tools, Compressor from Apple for projects outside Pro Tools and Dolby Surround Tools plugin for Dolby Pro Logic projects. We also work with partner studios in Soho to provide Dolby certified mixes for cinematic release.

We better start saving for some suits!
