CAS Awards 2018: ‘Dunkirk’ Wins Top Sound Mixing Honor

After losing the MPSE Award for sound editing, “Dunkirk” grabbed sound mixing honors Saturday night at the 54th CAS Awards at the Omni. Pixar’s “Coco” and National Geographic’s “Jane” took the animation and documentary prizes.

With the Oscars a week away, will Christopher Nolan’s audio tour-de-force win both sound editing and sound mixing? Or will it split with “Blade Runner 2049” or “Baby Driver”?

Meanwhile, the Sound Mixing team of “Black Mirror: USS Callister” took top honors for Television Movie or Mini-Series. Television-One Hour honors went to “Game of Thrones”: “Beyond the Wall,” while “Silicon Valley”: “”Mix Pre- 10T Recorder”-Con’” won the award for Television Series-Half Hour. “Rolling Stone: Stories from the Edge” won for Television Non-Fiction, Variety or Music Series or Specials.

“Coco”

“Darkest Hour” director Joe Wright earned the CAS Filmmaker Award, sound engineer Anna Behlmer (“Moulin Rouge!”) was honored with CAS Career Achievement Award, and Tomlinson Holman (“Star Wars: Episode VI — Return of the Jedi”) was bestowed the Edward J. Greene Award.
