About this service

Summary

I provide concept-driven sound design and original music for animation. Every project starts with your story and visual language, then translates that vision into a soundtrack that heightens emotion, pacing, and clarity—leaving audiences with a memorable experience.

Process

Discovery & Direction We align on your goals, references, mood, and key story moments. You’ll get a clear plan for tone, palette, and milestones.
Design & Composition I create bespoke effects, ambiences, and musical ideas that support character, setting, and rhythm—always built to enhance the cut, not distract from it.
Review & Refine You’ll receive previews placed to picture. We gather feedback, adjust cue timing and textures, and fine-tune transitions until it feels just right.
Polish & Integration Editing, mixing, and arrangement ensure everything sits together naturally, reads clearly against dialogue, and supports the emotional arc.
Delivery Final masters come sync-ready, with stems and alternate versions available to fit your edit and distribution needs.

FAQs

  • What types of videos do you specialize in for sound design and music?

    Explainers, short films, social ads, series pilots, and other animated content—ranging from subtle atmospheric pieces to energetic, character-driven soundtracks.

  • How do you ensure the sound design and music complement the animation?

    I study the visual style, pacing, and emotional intent, then design cues around key actions and transitions. Close collaboration with your team keeps everything aligned with the story.

  • How flexible are you with revisions and client feedback?

    Feedback is built in. I include revision rounds to refine timing, tone, and intensity until the soundtrack supports your vision.

  • What do you need from me to start?

    A locked or near-locked cut (or animatic), any references or temp tracks, notes on tone/brand, and delivery dates. If your cut evolves, I can adapt.

  • Can you collaborate with other specialists?

    Yes. I frequently partner with directors, animators, voice artists, and engineers to provide end-to-end audio support for larger productions.

  • Do you provide stems and alternate versions?

    Absolutely. Stems and alt cuts (e.g., teaser, loopable, or shorter versions) are available to make your edit and distribution smoother.

  • What about usage rights?

    You receive the rights to use the delivered audio within your project as agreed in the scope. Expanded usage can be arranged if needed.
