Default Cinema mixing levels poll

https://goo.gl/forms/8bK5mvxxWFEezdhx1

Hi all,
in an effort to get as much data as possible about cinema mixing levels around the world, I have created a short poll.
It would be great if as many people could answer the questions.

Thanks

Can you share the results when you're done? It's anonymous data right?

Yes I will gladly share the results, as it's important information for all of us in this field. And the poll is anonymous, which I think is important if I want people to answer truthfully.
Please do share the link within the community if you have a few minutes.

An older thread seems as relevant today as it was 5.5 years ago.

This is a good idea, it'll be interesting to see the results.

Like all these multiple choice things it doesn't allow for the level of accuracy answering these questions that would be really interesting.

for example a lot of people will prep a mix in a smaller room and final in a big Theatre, that's not really covered in this.

At the end of the day I think we need an agreed loudness standard for film, similar to R128 in broadcast and we can get back to enjoying mixing.

I'd like to keep it running for 5 to 10 days to get as many responses as possible.

Thanks.
(I expect the dialog LUFS at 85dBspl to be -33 +/-3 ...)

.
I know, that was why I created two different poll questions for predubs and finals. There are many other technical details that could have been covered, but in all honesty I'm not sure I would be able to interpret them nor find how relevant they are to the big picture, which is the recurring issue of cinema sound levels.
