Join an exciting opportunity to shape the sonic landscape of a cinematic 2D animated short film. This project requires a skilled audio engineer to complete all aspects of sound post-production, supporting dramatic character moments and dynamic action sequences. The film’s picture edit and principal voice recordings are finalized, with dialogue already synced and requiring only minor adjustments as agreed. Your expertise will be crucial in crafting an immersive, cohesive soundtrack that enhances the film’s environments, characters, and storytelling. You will collaborate directly with the director, providing creative input and responding to revision feedback throughout the process.

  • Perform and record Foley, ensuring synchronization with on-screen movement and emotional beats
  • Clean up dialogue tracks, preserving sync and clarity while making minor adjustments as needed
  • Edit and integrate music, aligning with narrative pacing and emotional tone
  • Mix and master the final soundtrack, delivering Premiere-compatible mixes, separated audio stems, and all relevant project materials
  • Collaborate closely with the director, incorporating feedback and revisions to achieve the desired creative vision
  • Navigate and utilize the existing Adobe Premiere Pro project and timeline; complete sound work in Pro Tools, REAPER, Nuendo, Adobe Audition, or equivalent software

Skills And Requirements

  • Proven experience in sound post-production for film or animation, with a strong portfolio of relevant work
  • Proficiency in industry-standard audio software (Pro Tools, REAPER, Nuendo, Adobe Audition, etc.)
  • Advanced skills in sound design, Foley performance/recording, SFX editing, dialogue editing, and mixing for cinematic projects
  • Ability to deliver high-quality, Premiere-compatible final mixes and separated stems
  • Strong communication skills and a collaborative approach to creative feedback
  • Detail-oriented, organized, and able to manage project assets efficiently
  • Availability for direct creative collaboration and timely revisions
