My name is Matt Schwartz and I am a freelance audio engineer, sound designer, & re-recording mixer (& amateur voice actor). I was born and raised in Dallas, Texas and graduated from Chapman University's Dodge College of Film. Over the last 15 or so years working in Los Angeles, I have developed my skills by working in audio on all different types of projects, and with every type of creative mind.  And I've even worked for 3 years as an audio instructor at the Los Angeles Recording School. And I love what I do.

 

     I have been fortunate over the years to have films I've mixed distributed on all major platforms and featured in many of the major film festivals around the world: Sundance, SXSW, Palm Springs Intl., and the Oldenburg Film Festival to name a few. I have also worked on several major ad campaigns for brands like Overstock.com, Affirm, Jameson, Soylent, Yeti, and many more. In 2023, I recieved an EMMY AWARD for my work on the 2022 FIFA World Cup with Fox Sports. 

 

     From a young age I've been drawn to the collaborative process. I love the experience of working with fellow filmmakers and friends (a bonus when it’s both) to achieve a common goal. And from my time in film school, I realized how important sound design was to film’s success, and how many great projects suffer as a result of poor production and/or post sound. In my sound design work, I have found a unique way to help people achieve their creative vision. I have come to love the challenge of making a story clearer through its sound and the fact that sound design is a different journey each time.
