268 - The Sound of Wicked: For Good

The all-star sound team behind “Wicked: For Good” returns to the show to discuss the bold sonic world of the film, and how it compared to the first. In this conversation, they break down everything from capturing on-set vocals to crafting the visceral aerial sequences — all while following Jon M. Chu’s vision for a darker, more mature final chapter of the “Wicked” story.

“In the first film — ‘world building,’ ‘set pieces,’ ‘youthful exuberance’ — those were all our keywords. And what we were leaning towards with the sound and music. On movie two, we’d already laid that foundation. So ‘emotion’ really became our superpower on this one. The characters’ emotion always guides the sonic world of each scene. And when you know you’re leading towards the song ‘For Good,’ which is as deeply emotional and compelling and heartbreaking as any song can get — and it represents the culmination of their relationship — you just have to follow the characters and follow what Jon Chu’s vision is for each of these scenes leading up to it.”
