Audio Post Production Engineer
Responsible for all audio post mixing of our broadcast content from viewer contributed documentary styled
pieces, inhouse produced docs to promotional material and sound design. This is a fast paced TV
environment. I am using the most up to date Pro Tools DControl ICON mixing board as well as state of the
art post production audio tools from Waves.
Since beginning at Current I have mixed over thousands individual programs and hundreds of promo spots
for broadcast. These are doc styled pieces varying in length from 3 minutes to 30 minutes. My strengths
here include a very quick work style enabling me to size up a job instantly while strategizing my mixing plan.
Everything I do goes on the air usually that same day.
Some of the content we receive at Current involves what I call “audio triage” work on very challenging
location audio recorded in very noisy environments. I have become very skilled at enhancing this type of
audio.
In addition to my mixing duties I also supervise the work of our other audio editors. I have created a working
Pro Tools template system to streamline and make consistent our workflow across our two running shifts.
Other Skills
I am an accomplished music composer, guitarist and percussionist. I have written scores for radio and TV
ads, performed as a session musician and toured around the US. I have studied music composition at UCLA
and USC as well as private instruction.
I have done voice over work on many radio and TV spots and excel at character voices.
