About

Hi, I’m Paul Goodyear.
I’ve been an audio professional since the eighties, with over 35 years of experience spoken word production, foley, music, and advertising post-production. I’m fluent in English and German and have been resident in Germany since 1986, working across studios in Hamburg and Munich. I’m comfortable in fast-paced environments and enjoy collaborating with remote creative teams to deliver top-quality audio.

My strengths include voice-over recording and editing for advertising, industrial films and podcasts, voice direction, sound design, and mixing for international campaigns. I’m passionate about helping teams shape compelling soundscapes and delivering content to tight deadlines.
