82nd Academy Awards

It's suprising. The amount of time, technology and expertise put together to produce this show is incredible. Sets to lighting to staging......looks brilliant. Why however, could they not get the audio feed right! We couldn't hear the front-announcing half of the time even though it was announced in the theatre. The sound mix during the production numbers was sloppy. In one case, the music was still being played over the top of 2 presenters trying to give an award! I have no doubt it will be 'fixed' before the delayed telecast...... but it doesn't say a lot for the people on the desk responsible for the outgoing feed during the live show. Very messy.
