Behind the Screen

The Sound of Fury Road

Sound designer David White (Mad Max: Fury Road, The Railway Man, Dangerous Animals) is one of Australia’s most accomplished screen sound artists.


David’s Oscar-winning work on Mad Max: Fury Road helped define one of the most exhilarating action films of our time. In this on-screen deconstruction, he revisits key sequences from the film to show how sound is used to tell the story, underscore emotion, build tension - and create dramatic action sequences that immerse audiences in the relentless intensity of its high-octane world.


This is a rare opportunity to explore how sound shaped a modern classic, guided by the Oscar winner who brought it to life.
