Hi! I am Massimo, I'm a Sound Designer specialized in videogames. I work with indie game studios and emergent film directors, helping them reach their audio vision both creatively and technically. I love designing sounds for characters, ambiences, weapons and in general helping my clients with finding the sounds for their worldbuilding, but I also design audio implementation systems for games. I also have experience doing audio for animations, commercials, mixing music for albums and soundtracks.
