Simone Costa

Hi, I’m Simone, a dedicated audio professional with a unique hybrid background: I work both on-set as a production sound mixer and in the studio as a sound designer and re-recording mixer. This end-to-end experience gives me a distinct advantage. I don’t just process audio; I know exactly how it was captured on location, what the acoustic challenges were, and how to seamlessly bridge production sound with high-end post-production to serve your narrative.

My work has been featured in projects selected for prestigious international film festivals, including the Venice International Film Festival and numerous others across the globe. This background ensures I bring a rigorous, cinematic standard to every project, whether it’s an independent film, a documentary, or a commercial campaign.

Operating from my fully equipped studio in Italy, I provide remote, premium audio post-production. I am set up for frictionless remote collaboration, allowing directors and producers to stream high-quality audio directly from my Pro Tools session to their browsers for real-time mix reviews.

Core Services:

• Dialogue Editing & Restoration: Advanced surgical cleaning of location audio to ensure crystal-clear, intelligible dialogue.

• Sound Design & Foley: Building rich, immersive acoustic spaces and custom sound effects from the ground up.

• Re-Recording Mixing (Stereo, 5.1): Crafting dynamic, cinematic mixes balanced perfectly with your music and dialogue.

• Loudness & QC Compliance: Strict adherence to international broadcast and streaming standards (EBU R128, ATSC A/85) ensuring your project passes QC for Netflix, Amazon, or network television without issues.

Remote Collaboration Stack:
Pro Tools, iZotope RX, Audiomovers (Listento) for real-time remote client review.

Whether you are looking to fix problematic production audio or need a complete sonic landscape built from scratch, I bring a filmmaker’s mindset and technical precision to every frame. Let’s connect to discuss your next project.
