Sound Designer & Music Editor

My work:

During my second year at ISART Digital, I had the opportunity to work on the complete sound design for a final year project in the cinema section called Persephone. Our audio team consisted of three sound designers: Victor Bick, Tom Moesch, and myself. As the main point of contact for the sound team, I collaborated with multiple colleagues to gather project requirements and effectively distribute the workload among the sound designers.

In my role, I focused on the following aspects of the project:

Creating a realistic ambiance for the first and last scenes, set in the apartment and the Hades’ Temple.
Handling the foley sounds for Demetra, the primary character, excluding her footsteps.
Designing the various sounds for the ghouls during the pursuit sequences.
Crafting the soundscape for Hades, another key character in the story.
Recording footsteps on multiple surfaces and wood sounds for the boat on the Styx.
Mixing and balancing all the sound elements to ensure a cohesive and immersive audio experience (stereo for Youtube and 5.1 for theaters).
Editing and incorporating music from the AudioNetwork library to enhance the overall impact.

I worked closely with my team to ensure a cohesive and immersive sound experience that complemented the visuals and evoked the desired emotions for each scene. Our goal was to create an impactful audio environment that enhanced the narrative and captivated the audience.

I take great pride in our work on « Persephone » and the contributions I made to the project. It was a valuable experience that further developed my skills in sound design and collaborative teamwork.
