About

Audio post professional handling sound design, music editing, and mixing for a ~30-minute horror short film, using psychologically driven textures and custom-recorded extended instrument sounds to shape tension and narrative beats. Experienced in fast-paced, high-volume delivery (including virtual orchestra concert editing/mixing during COVID) and remote freelance work, with a workflow spanning Pro Tools/Logic, M&E deliverables, and dialogue-aware automation.

• Inventive, non-traditional horror sound palette creation (distortion, out-of-tune textures, extended cello techniques recorded and processed)
• Strong technical audio post workflow knowledge (M&E mixes, format/frame-rate/sample-rate considerations)
• Efficient high-volume turnaround with structured prioritization when late notes arrive
• Feedback-driven iteration, including replacing removed dialogue/music with SFX/transitions to maintain engagement
• Consistent mix quality via templates and automation (sidechain ducking for dialogue clarity) and multi-device translation checks
