Mark Taylor, Stuart Wilson, 2019 winners

The Academy Award for Best Sound Mixing is an Academy Award that recognizes the finest or most euphonic sound mixing or recording, and is generally awarded to the production sound mixers and re-recording mixers of the winning film.

The Sound Branch of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, until 2006 would use a "bake-off" of the best films from the previous year to decide which films should be referred to the full Academy as nominations for the award. In a rule change on June 30, 2006, the bake-off for the Sound Branch was eliminated, and the usual process of a "preferential ballot" submission was instituted.

The official name of the award has changed several times over the years:

  • 1929 — 1957: Best Sound Recording
  • 1958 — 2002: Best Sound
  • 2003 — present: Best Sound Mixing
