Live and act
Maumont began his professional training at the end of the war in 1945 and was brought to film by Jacques Tati in 1947 , where he was involved in the sound of his comedy Tatis Schützenfest . In 1959 he rose to the position of chief sound engineer in a short film by Jean-Luc Godard .

In 1987, he withdrew from the industry and retired.
Jacques Maumont has been nominated several times for film awards: in 1963 he received an Oscar for the tonal special effects that he had created two years earlier for the US war film The Longest Day , which was partly shot in France .
