Post Audio for Film

My team and I are here to help your audience experience your vision. 

Mixing

Your sound mix is one of the most important steps in the process to give your film project the cinematic feel. No matter the format (Dolby Atmos, 7.1, 5.1, and stereo). I make sure your mix translates anywhere from the theater to the living room. Immersing the audience in your vision while making sure the mix and stems meet required specifications(Theatrical, Netflix, Hulu, Etc.)

Dialog Editing

This is the absolutely necessary part of the post audio process where dialog is cleaned up, repaired, and isolated. Making sure it can sit properly in the environment of a given scene. Making every line/shot transition seamlessly.  

Sound Design and Foley

In film most of what you hear aside from the dialog is placed in post. This process insures an immersive surreal experience for the audience. This also allows the separation of dialog to submit separate stems for outside markets, and marketing. Utilizing any number of sound effects, stingers, and impacts; this is how your film becomes larger than life.

Dolby Atmos spatial audio is the latest, and most immersive format you can provide your audience. This format gives you a 360 degree soundstage and future proofs your mix to be enjoyed by listeners for decades to come.

Bio

I grew up in a musical family surrounded by it. Early on my passion was evident, and my future in music/audio production would be my only path. 

 

As the former Chief Engineer at Blackbeard Recording Studios(Houston, TX)of 6 years; I have over 16 years of experience working in audio and music. Since going freelance in early 2018, I have been able to be more selective and follow the projects I am absolutely passionate about. I try to push the boundaries of recording and audio production. My team and I have the ability to capture the vibe and feel of a given project and bring it to life. Accentuating and embellishing the client's original idea, I aim to create a dreamscape, eliminating the distance between the client's mind and the audience.
