'Everybody came with their A-game': Oscar-winning sound editor Andy Nelson talks reuniting with Spielberg & John Williams for 'Disclosure Day'

If there's anyone who has their ear to the ground when it comes to Steven Spielberg projects, it's British Sound Editor and Re-Recording Mixer Andy Nelson. This legendary sonic wizard has been a crucial creative element in 21 Spielberg films and has won multiple Academy Awards for best sound achievements in classics like "Schindler’s List" and "Les Misérables." In fact, he's been nominated for more Oscars (25) than any other living person, after the great John Williams. For " Disclosure Day ," Nelson once again teamed up with his longtime collaborator to lend his considerable expertise to the sound editing and final mixing of Spielberg's sci-fi film, which he considers to be one of the master’s best works in years. We connected with Nelson to hear more about "Disclosure Day's" acoustic game plan and how dialogue, sound effects, and music perfectly fused together. "My first film with Steven was 'Hook,' and this particular film, which I'm incredibly proud of, is actually my 21st movie working with Steven," Nelson tells Space. "It's just been one wonderful event after another. The thing with Steven is that his stories are so fascinating, and I knew that he was so excited about this, to revisit and kind of almost bookend something that he started with 'E.T.' and 'Close Encounters.'"
