Rydstrom<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The question that often comes up every year is &#8216;what is the difference between sound editing and sound mixing&#8217;?<\/p>\n<p>In the modern era, sound <strong>editing\u00a0<\/strong>refers to the <em>creation<\/em> of the overall\u00a0sound-scape\u00a0of the film, whilst sound <strong>mixing<\/strong> is <em>blending<\/em> of these elements together to create the final sound mix.<\/p>\n<p>The award is usually received by the\u00a0<a title=\"Supervising Sound Editor\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Supervising_Sound_Editor\">Supervising Sound Editors<\/a>\u00a0of the film, sometimes accompanied by the <a title=\"Sound Designer\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Sound_Designer\">sound designers<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>As sound in movies has evolved, so has this award, which dates back to 1963.<\/p>\n<p>From that year until 2000, it was adjusted for the sound design of the winning movie, so\u00a0Best\u00a0<a title=\"Sound effects\"

2000\u2013present).<\/p>\n<p>The sound mixing category is the one that dates back to the early years of the Oscars.<\/p>\n<p>What&#8217;s interesting about sound this year is that some of the nominees (notably Transformers 3 and War Horse) have taken advantage of <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/7.1_surround_sound\">Dolby&#8217;s new 7.1 surround
