Huntsville, Alabama, is home to so much Alabama history—old and new. Legends and lore abound in the city—including stories of the ghostly kind. Many people claim to have seen restless spirits at various locations throughout the city, particularly on historic properties. One such location is Cedarhurst, a mansion built in 1823, soon after Alabama became a state.
A movie ends. The credits roll. A litany of behind-the-scenes names and job titles scroll past. One of the names that you have likely seen dozens of times without even realizing it is also one of the most respected production sound mixers in the business: Alabama native Willie D. Burton. If you’re not sure what a sound mixer does on a film, they are responsible for planning and executing the sound recording and balance during a shoot. |
