Tristan Baylis, M.P.S.E.
Audio Creative Director, Re-recording Mixer
"In addition to rigorous industry tutelage, I bring an understanding of emotion to my work with an educational foundation in psychology as well as audio engineering. I enjoy getting to deeply understand my source material, whilst searching for the subtext of each scene as the story builds and planning how to enhance it through intentional and nuanced choices. I look for musicality, rhythm and intent in every sound I choose. Every sound must have purpose."
