Ford v. Ferrari, Rocketman, JoJo Rabbit, 1917 and Toy Story 4 took home the top film editing awards, when the Motion Picture Sound Editors (MPSE) held their 67th Annual Golden Reel Awards on Sunday night, January 19, in downtown Los Angeles.
Academy Award-nominated producer (Little Women) Amy Pascal presented the 2020 MPSE Filmmaker Award to Marvel Studios executive vice president of production Victoria Alonso (with re-recording mixer Kevin O’Connell and supervising sound editor Steven Ticknor as honorary presenters). The 2020 MPSE Career Achievement Award was presented to Academy Award-winning supervising sound editor Cecelia “Cece” Hall by two-time Academy Award-winning supervising sound editor Stephen H. Flick.
Nominees represent the work of the world’s most talented sound artists and their contributions to the past year’s most outstanding feature film, television, animation, computer entertainment and student productions.
“Sound artists continue to push boundaries for artistry and technical achievement in entertainment sound,” said MPSE president Tom McCarthy. “This year’s nominees represent the best work in sound across films, television, games, documentaries and other media. On behalf of The Motion Picture Sound Editors, I would like to congratulate all the nominees for their outstanding contributions to the art of sound.”
