Why Work With Me?
With a deep understanding of both the creative and technical sides of post-production, I bridge the gap between "good audio" and "market-ready content." Whether you are an independent author or a YouTube creator, my goal is to make your content sound (and look) expensive.
Core Expertise:
ACX & Audiobook Mastering: I precisely calibrate your files to meet all ACX requirements:
RMS Levels: Consistent between -23dB and -18dB.
Peak Levels: Capped at -3dB.
Noise Floor: Crystal clear at -60dB or lower.
Formatting: Proper spacing for headers, intros, and outros.
Audio Restoration: Professional removal of mouth clicks, plosives (pops), heavy breathing, and background hum using industry-leading tools.
Video Editing: Narrative-driven editing for YouTube, social media, and corporate presentations, focusing on pacing and clear audio integration.
The Workflow:
Cleanup: Stripping away the "room sound" and imperfections.
Mastering: Applying EQ, compression, and limiting for that warm, professional "radio" voice.
Validation: Running your files through technical benchmarks to ensure 100% compliance.
Delivery: Clean, high-quality MP3s or WAVs ready for upload.
The Call to Action:
Stop worrying about the technical specs and start focusing on your next project. Send me a message today, and let’s discuss how I can make your audio sound flawless.

I’m a sound designer and BA graduate specializing in audio post-production for film, video, YouTube content, and podcasts.
My main strengths are sound editing, foley, dialogue clean-up, ambience creation, and layered sound effects design. I focus on building immersive, believable soundscapes that enhance storytelling, emotion, and clarity.
I’ve worked on multiple student films and YouTube projects, developing a strong sense for pacing, detail, and narrative flow through sound.
If you need a detail-oriented sound designer to bring depth and atmosphere to your project, I’d be glad to help.

Bad audio ruins great videos. My job is to make sure that doesn't happen to yours.
Hi, I am Volodymyr, a Sound Designer and Audio Post-Production Engineer from Kyiv, Ukraine.
I make your project sound professional, punchy, and expensive. From rescuing a terrible dialogue recording to mixing a dynamic commercial, I deliver broadcast-ready audio that holds viewer attention.
📌 What I can do for you:
● Audio Restoration & Cleaning: Salvaging bad recordings by removing wind, static, hum, and room echo (iZotope RX and AI Cleaning).
● Re-Recording Mixing & Mastering: Perfect balance between voice-over, SFX, and music, hitting strict industry standards.
● Cinematic Sound Design & Foley: Custom soundscapes and heavy SFX layers for trailers, films, and animations.
● Sound for Commercials: High-impact audio production for promos and ads.
● Audio Branding & Music Editing: Crafting memorable jingles and seamlessly cutting background music to fit your picture.
● Custom AI Audio Generation: Prompting and curating tailored, royalty-free music and sound effects (100% cleared for commercial use).
● Podcast & Interview Editing
● Cooking a killer pot of borscht.
🤝 Why work with me?
My past clients consistently highlight my "quick turnaround," "great communication," and "attention to detail." You get a dedicated partner who replies fast, meets deadlines, and treats your project with the exact same care as his own.

🏆 Award-Winning Audio Specialist. 🎬 Cinema & Animation Credits. 🎮 Steam Game Projects. 🎓 MA in Sound Design.
🔈 I believe sound is 50% of the experience. It turns a "video" into cinema and a "game" into an immersive world. My goal is to elevate your project’s production value through high-end, custom audio.
Why I Stand Out:
Award-Winning Quality: 1st Prize Winner at the 27th IFCA/MFRU Awards. My work has been featured in festivals and commercially released games.
Game Audio Pro: I don't just make sounds; I implement them. Expert in Wwise, FMOD, and Unreal Engine 5 Blueprints.
Narrative Focus: Whether it's a film or a game, I design audio that supports the story, guides the player, and retains the audience.
SERVICES I OFFER:
Game Audio & Implementation: High-impact SFX, adaptive music systems, and full integration using Wwise/FMOD/Unreal.
Sound Design for Animation: Character Foley, cartoon physics, and detailed world-building.
Cinematic Post-Production: Dialogue cleaning (RX), sound editing, and final mixing for Film & Trailers.
UI & UX Audio: Functional, satisfying sounds for apps and interfaces that improve user experience.
Immersive Audio: 3D Spatial Audio for VR, AR, and Web3 environments.
Consultation & Strategy:
📞 Offering a complimentary audio review. Send me your current game build or video edit. I will provide actionable insights on how professional sound design can separate your project from competitors.
❝ The final outcome shone with exceptional quality. ❞ 🗣 Robert Turner
❝ Delivered precisely what I envisioned. ❞ 🗣 Olivia Walker
WHY CHOOSE ME?
My work is built on an Integrity approach. I view myself as a partner in your production pipeline, not just an outsourcer. I care about the story you are trying to tell, and I ensure the audio serves that story perfectly.
Goal = Immersion & Emotion 🚀
