About Sylvain

🎧 Freelance sound engineer | Post-production · Broadcast · Podcast · Sound Design

You have images. They need sound to match.
For over 20 years, I've been assisting directors, agencies, and producers with audio post-production — from documentaries to podcasts, corporate to broadcast. Compliant deliverables, ready to air from the first version.

🎬 Audiovisual Post-production
Dialogue editing, audio restoration (noise, de-reverb, artifacts), sound design to picture, ambiance creation, stereo and multichannel mixing. Perfect intelligibility, controlled dynamics, enhanced emotional impact.

📡 Broadcast & technical requirements
Former TV channel sound engineer. Mastered standards: EBU-R128, loudness, Dolby E and Dolby Atmos, broadcast and platform deliverables. You receive a stable and compliant mix, with no reprocessing.

🎙 Podcast & narrative content
Full editing, multi-speaker harmonization, voice processing, and mixing optimized for Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and YouTube. Consistent results, even from complex recordings.

🎧 Custom Sound Design
Sound universes for films, animations, teasers, and corporate projects. Sound as a narrative tool, serving the project's rhythm and identity.

✔ 20 years of field experience
✔ Compliant deliverables from the first version
✔ Smooth collaboration with directors, editors, and agencies
✔ Respect for deadlines, even on tight post-productions
✔ Remote-first, easy integration into your workflows
