Skywalker Ranch, Espresso Machines in Hand Luggage & The Endless Ends of Cinema.

A Couple of Drips

Gianluca Sergi is a professor of Film at the University of Nottingham. He specialises in sound, and his research and contacts have taken him to places such as Skywalker Ranch, Pixar, Dolby, The Oscars and Industrial Light and Magic. Shortly to Publish a book with Oscar winning sound designer Gary Rydstrom, Gianluca talks about how the relationship between academia and Hollywood came about, how we met, discovered a love of wine, and how not to make an entrance at the Academy of Film.
