Ha, classic Resolve weirdness. Yes, in the edit tab clicking on any audio track will bring up the options in the inspector, and Voice Isolation is available there on a clip by clip basis. The funny part is that it sounds like you were wishing for that flexibility, while I was looking for the full track option that you knew about!!!
I went 24p on this project. It's one of my first to do so, but I've come to realize there is just no legit reason to shoot 23.98 for this kind of thing, from all I've heard.
I need to make a trailer! next project maybe. Thinking about putting a link up here, the festivals don't like projects to be publicly viewable on the web but maybe if I keep it unlisted.
Thanks for sharing. I think trailers are so fun to edit, especially after you have been constrained by the structure of the main edit. It feels like freestyle by comparison.

EXCELLENT! Nice work, Charles. I really enjoyed it. It must have been fun to make.
I watched a bit of Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid before making this, it's been so many years. Lots of great bits. It's interesting to see how the old footage was integrated, of course long before digital scans and workflows so matching the footage was purely photochemical, making it much harder. And prime Rachel Ward...need I say more.
HA! nice.
Conveniently, my lead actor's day job is a graphics artist so I was able to get that one off my own plate! But I beat him mercilessly on the replication of period titles. The more they looked like actual period, the more fun it got. Down to "fixing" the spacing between letters to simulate text laid out by hand vs computer. Same thing with the music, I kept the composer drilled into the actual era. I'm still trying to replace one of the temp tracks, the burlesque swing number on Dominique's entrance. That didn't work at all via keyboard emulation process. I have a student big band recording a test for me this weekend.
No, all made in Photoshop, but I asked him to monkey with the kerning to give it that hand-set apperance.
Really enjoyed this Charles.
From rolling on the first setup to wrap less lunch was 8.5 hours. Crew was 15 strong, with four short-timers who helped for first few hours setting up the set dressing and props. We moved super fast, 1-2 takes and very little time between setups. Yes, the car work was done on another night because I couldn't procure one in time for the primary shoot. You can see the 55" TV I used with the running stock footage as a nod to the way this would have been done in the 40's, process with rear projection.
