Composer - Sound Designer

I am Yves Matar, a Canadian sound designer and composer for Visual Media. My father being a sound engineer, I have been around studios since very young, and found my passion to be in sound. I have found a deep fascination for game audio specifically, especially when working on my thesis, where I produced my own VR game on Unreal paired with FMOD following the life of Gibran Khalil Gibran, and studied how different intervallic sizes in microtonal elements paired with the sonic soundscape could alter the emotive perception of the scenario one is in. Though my experience has been primarily in linear media, I find myself increasingly drawn to interactive media. I have worked on sound design, composition, and dubbing in French and Arabic for TV series, documentaries, and films for the past 8 years. As a freelancer, I have worked on several orchestration projects for local and international artists with production houses such as “Haut de Gamme”, and engineers such as Eddy Jazra. I have also worked on sound design and music for documentaries and short films with international companies such as "Universal Media and Publishing" in the Sultanate of Oman. One of the tracks made for a short promotional video there earned me a spot among the top 10 winners in the second round of the Oticons Faculty International Film Music Competition. I was also a music engraver for Korean TV series “Meow: The Secret Boy”, and “Queen: Love and War” with composer Hagyeong Yeo. With the current situation in the world, I am using the quarantine to produce my own DotA 2 music pack. Most importantly, I believe our main focus should be to pour our hearts into projects we can look back to and be proud of, and I would use everything I have to this end.
