About

Sound Designer & Music Composer | Cinematic Sound Design & Original Music for Film & Advertising

I am a UAE-based sound designer, music composer and audio engineer with 15+ years of creative and technical experience. I help filmmakers, advertising teams and theatre productions shape their stories through original music, sound design and audio post-production.

My services include music composition and arrangement, sound design, recording, audio editing, dialogue cleanup, synchronization with picture, mixing and mastering. My background combines original music and sound design for theatre and musical theatre with music production and audio work for films and advertisements.

From March 2020 to April 2024, I owned and managed Layali Alfan Studio in the UAE, handling projects from the initial brief and session planning through production, quality control and final delivery. Since 2008, I have also worked as a freelance music composer and theatre director on independent projects in Egypt and the UAE.

I work with Pro Tools, Cubase, Logic Pro and Adobe Audition. I hold a Master of Music from Alexandria University (2024) and a Bachelor of Music (2011).

Tell me about your film, advertisement or stage production, the mood you want to create and your delivery requirements.
