Production Sound

Hi, I’m an I​A​T​S​E​ Local 695 ​(Y-1​) Production​ Sound Mixer, Boom Operator & Utility Sound Technician.

I have a zest for recording sound to film & credit my music background for giving me a great ear

Location Sound Mixer, Sound Recordist, & On-Set Sound are also informal terms.

Let’s chat about your next project.

My basic Production Sound Package starts with 2 Lavs, 1 Boom, and the Mixer/Recorder

Let's discuss your project so I can give you a more accurate rate for the production sound department.
