Design Philosophy

Getting amazing audio shouldn’t be a stressful experience.

You shouldn’t have to worry about music theory and technical details to get the right audio for your project (unless you like that kind of thing). I work with you to understand your goals and audience, and deliver music, SFX, and voice designed to serve them.

Not sure what your project should sound like? Not a problem. I will guide you through a process to determine your sonic-branding. Along the way we’ll create a list of deliverables and milestones so that you can be sure you are getting the right sounds on schedule.

MUSIC

By crafting an experience with emotional anchors, your audience will feel a deeper connection to your creative project and brand.

SFX

Sound effects create immersion. This builds the forth-wall, leading to retention and conversion.

VOICE

Story and voice are connected. The quality of your voice-over, singing, or narration, can enhance your story or distract from it.
