Nor is he a typical PSE client!

Sure, Beau Borders is a successful feature film mixer and sound editor (IMDb).
But he also happens to be a professional racecar driver.

Yes, you read that correctly.

Beau mixing The Muppets movie with a few of his muppet pals.
 Beau is a Sound Mixing Academy Award nominee for his work on Lone Survivor. He has collaborated on huge, blockbuster films like TitanicLord of the Rings, and Transformers. And he also drives badass cars (like his BMW M3) at crazy high speeds, boasting consistent National and US Majors Tour wins in the highly competitive Formula Mazda series.

As a Pro Sound Effects client and Hybrid Library Owner, Beau made this hilarious video for us using the PSE Library. His sound design complements footage shot during his recent US Touring Car Championship race at Laguna Seca in California with his team, Life's Good Racing.

You can learn more about Beau's sound work as well as his racing endeavors on his website: BordersRacing.com.
