When working on a project that features horses on screen, the sound design can be broken up into 3 main categories: Their hooves, Saddle/Bridle, and their Vocalizations and Breathing. None of these are easy to design the sound for. Luckily we have some of the most talented people working in audio post-production chiming in, to tell us how they approach horses in their work. Paula Fairfield, George Haddad, Wylie Statemen, Gary Hecker, Mandell Winter, Robert Stambler, Don Sylvester and Sandra Fox all pony up their hard earned knowledge.

267 - Sound Design For Horses

Westerns were a staple in Hollywood for decades before moviegoers tastes changed and no one went to see them any longer.  The answer?  A hip young cast and cool music centered around a Billy the Kid story.  Emilio Estevez takes the reigns as the infamous gunslinger alongside a cast that includes Charlie Sheen & Kiefer Sutherland.  Saddle up and check out our new review of the 1988 film, Young Guns

Young Guns (1988) - Movie Review

Here's a little something about childhood toys, imagination and dreams…

I heard that old Geronimo 
Went looking for a friend
He had a pipe full of peace
In the wind around the bend
He was looking for a sign 
Or a star in the sky
No wagon trains in sight
On this clear and moonlit night

So ride on Johnny West
Ride on through the night
Put up old Thunderbolt
Just before first light
Lay your head down easy
So many miles to go
No scuffs on your hat
Nothing that would show

Geronimo kept moving
Through the valleys and the plains
Memories of battles
Echoed in his veins
He thought about the people
And the land they called home
With every step he took
He felt the spirit in his bones

So ride on Johnny West
Ride on through the night
Put up old Thunderbolt
Just before first light
Lay your head down easy
So many miles to go
No scuffs on your hat
Nothing that would show

The spirits whispered softly
In the rustling of the leaves
They told tales of honor
Under burned out ancient trees
Johnny felt their presence
In the silence of the night
He knew his path was sacred
As he held his reins tight

Geronimo found solace
In the calm of Johnny’s eyes
A silent understanding
Beneath those endless skies
Together they would journey
Through echoes of the past
Across dreams of their fathers
And the long shadows they cast

So ride on Johnny West
Ride on through the night
Put up old Thunderbolt
Just before first light
Lay your head down easy
So many miles to go
No scuffs on your hat
Nothing that would show

Johnny & Geronimo

Melody Groves has written 12 Western novels and 5 non-fiction books of the Old West.

I read a very light-hearted Western tale “She Was Sheriff” in preparation for this interview. The story tagline "All She Wanted Was a Gold Band—What She Got Was a Tin Star."

We discuss the current growth of the Western genre and comparisons between it and the SF genre. The Western Horse Opera preceded Science Fiction Space Opera.

Writers & Illustrators of the Future Podcast,  289. Melody Groves, President Western

In honor of "Megalopolis," we begin a new series on great filmmakers' last big swings. Today, it's Kevin Costner's all-in bet on himself, as he rewrites the frontier myth once again. Noah Ballard (Verve) is here to talk "Horizon: An American Saga - Chapter 1," its baffling number of plot lines, questionable portrayal of the Apache, and impossible infatuation with the "real West."
