#294: Sound Designing Weird Al with Mike Gallagher and Anthony Vanchure

Mike Gallagher and Anthony Vanchure are, respectively, the sound designer and supervising sound editor for the new bio pic Weird: The Al Yankovic Story. The duo have worked together on many projects, including Netflix's Song Exploder and Amazon's Lucy and Desi. Both have been nominated for Emmy awards.

Mike and Anthony spoke about their work on the Weird Al biopic. They went into great detail about how sound can be used to tell a story and set a mood. We discussed the choices they made to support the film's tone and how feedback from the directors and Weird Al himself helped guide their work.
