Streaming Stars, Then and Now

Shirley Libby became hooked on sound during a college break while working for a radio station in Wichita, Kansas, where she did a radio drama for the station and ended up changing her major to Radio/TV/Film. Recording sound for films was in her future. After working as a still photographer in Atlanta she began working on film sets as photographer which led her back to what she really wanted and loved - sound - where she began as a boom operator. Getting clear dialogue is a constant challenge and requires skill and adaptability. With the advent of multiple cameras and the love affair of the wireless microphones, added to noisy wardrobe and props, to the ever increasing noise level of the world, a mixer has to make instant decisions regarding microphones, using the boom mics effectively and picking the right piece of equipment. Shirley takes pride in and loves being an important part of a film or television team of widely divergent professionals, with everyone doing their piece of the film as expertly as possible. Shirley has lived in Atlanta for many years, well before it became the shooting hub it is now.
