Brandon Proctor

Biography

Brandon Proctor is a celebrated American re-recording mixer based at Skywalker Sound. Known for his expertise in balancing extreme sonic dynamics—from the silence of A Quiet Place to the bass-heavy action of the Marvel Cinematic Universe—he is a frequent collaborator with directors Ryan Coogler and John Krasinski. In January 2026, Proctor received his second Academy Award nomination (Best Sound) for his work on Ryan Coogler's "Sinners" (2025). As a lead re-recording mixer alongside Steve Boeddeker, Proctor was responsible for the final sonic balance of the film, weaving together the "rhythmic" sound effects and Ludwig Göransson's blues-inspired score into a cohesive, immersive horror experience. He also received a BAFTA nomination for the same film. Proctor’s ability to handle high-concept audio landscapes is well-documented. He previously earned his first Oscar nomination for "Black Panther" (2018) and received multiple BAFTA nominations for his work on "A Quiet Place" (2018) and "A Quiet Place Part II" (2021), where he mastered the tension between near-silence and creature attacks. In addition to his awards run in 2026, he is credited as a mixer on the 2025 sci-fi thriller "Predator: Badlands", directed by Dan Trachtenberg.
