However, one element has changed every aspect of this mix and that is "visual effects" which is now a source of inspiration from the "pre- production" stage itself. This session will look at making cutting-edge visual effects come alive with an energizing dialogue with experts from Hollywood and India.

This article deals with the first historical phase of sound production in India, as explained in the Introduction, namely: analogue recording, synchronized sound, and monaural mixing (1931– 1950s). Satyajit Ray emerged during this period and made full use of these techniques; hence, his work with sound is used as a benchmark here when studying this specific period of sound production. The article examines the use of ambient sound in the early years of film sound production, highlighting two differing attitudes, the first markedly vococentric and music-oriented, the second applying a more direct sound aesthetics to create a mode of realism.
