Hi. I’m a Foley Artist, Sound Designer & Composer for games & other media. For a first impression find my latest showreel below.
What makes me and my work unique?
I’m an experienced Foley Artist working in this fascinating field for 14 years now. This means I have a very good idea about materials, textures, timing and rhythm. Having acquired a couple of rooms full of Foley props of all kinds is an excellent condition for creating great custom sound effects.
I hold a Tonmeister diploma from the renowned Berlin University of the Arts. During my studies I got extensive musical training like ear training, score reading & organology accompanied by in-depth technical knowledge about microphones, recording techniques, signal processing and such. I play several instruments.
Last but not least life has given me both lemons and candy so I can draw upon an array of real emotions when working on sound.
When I decide wether to take on a project or not my first question is always: Can I add value to this project? Some things don’t speak to me, and in these cases I won’t be able to add a valuable voice on my own and I always try to be honest about that to myself and my potential clients.
