◼️ I craft audio to help tell your stories and power up your content.
◼️ I amplify your creations so your work can make a deeper connection with your audience.
◼️ I take the stress out of the audio post-production and make your work hit harder.
TL;DR I MAKE YOUR WORK FEEL RIGHT
'You were the right person to deliver creative quality combined with the standard of client professionalism we needed for this project.'
'He really understood and analysed the brief, crafting an immersive soundscape that helped to elevate the finished films to heights we simply couldn't have achieved otherwise.'
'Working with Dom was nothing short of a dream. He is not only an expert in his field — but also truly cares about his craft.'
'He is able to process the brief and enhance it in a creative and genre appropriate approach. He is a great communicator and maintains the ability to solve problems creatively.'
'Dom is incredible to work with. We first came together for my BAFTA longlisted film 'Wanderland' where he did a great job on the audio post. I would work with him any day.'
'I massively appreciate all the extra effort and love you've poured into this project. Your sound design has really elevated the film. You're stuck with me now, Dom.'
'Dom can work across a huge variety of clients and makes for an enjoyable working relationship. Reliable, hard-working and extremely talented'
'Dom has always been great at deciphering my thoughts and producing audio that fits the visuals perfectly. He's extremely personable and very easy to work with.'
'Dom is smart, easy to work with and realistic and to top it off he's very good at the creative end of his job. He has far exceeded my expectations.'
'Here at Mondi Studio we're always happy with the work Dom does. He works well when he comes into our team and delivers beyond expectation every time'
'Dom's sound design came highly recommended in a directors WhatsApp group. We collaborated on my short Bully and he was a pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend to any filmmaker.'
Every project is different but my approach to sound design and creative briefs remains:
Break It
Break it down into its components. Find the essence behind the brief. Understand the core values. How can these be reimagined sonically?
Mess With It
Play. Experiment. Explore. Discover. Mess It Up. See where the boundaries can be pushed to, to return a unique sonic footprint.
Re-Build It
Build it back into something that's original, technically sound, has feeling, hits the brief & resonates with the audience.
Mission: Enhance Content
Objective: Remain Unseen
When you do things right, people won't be sure you've done anything at all.
This Taoist concept might be old, but it resonates true with my approach to sound design and audio post-production.
As sound designers, our role is to elevate content. To be felt, not necessarily heard. We enhance emotional narratives, adding depth and power without overwhelming the story.
Of course, when the moment calls for it, we can let loose and shake some tail feathers off. But more often than not, the true artistry lies in subtlety: focusing on the nuances that transform a production from "good" to "great".
It's in those finer details where we exploit the emotion, ensuring every frame sounds, and feels, right.
The flip side to this, is that poor audio wakes people up. It disrupts immersion, making them question why something feels "off."
The devil is in the detail, and that's something I work very hard to deliver.
Over many years, I've been trusted with projects from some of the world's biggest brands to deeply personal film projects. Regardless of the scale, harnessing the emotional power of sound is always at the core of my approach.
I’m driven by a passion for pushing creative boundaries, finding new ways to elevate productions and deepen their impact...
