Hi, I'm Jane Waddell! I'm a dedicated sound designer & audio engineer specializing in original music for visual media. I have an extensive musical background, including a 2019 Bachelor of Music from the University of Victoria, and decades of experience performing with large ensembles (from the UVic Vocal Jazz ensemble to the Saskatoon Symphony Orchestra). In recent years, my passion for music has expanded to encompass audio in general – I completed the 'Sound Design for Visual Media' program at the Vancouver Film School in 2024, and have filled sound design & audio editing roles on a number of small independent films. My musical background has definitely influenced my sound design, lending it a tonal quality & timbral variety well-suited to colourful animated productions. If that sounds like a good fit for your project, then I look forward to helping you bring it to life!…Hi, I'm Jane Waddell!
