About Me

I am Vivien, I create interactive systems for the audio industry, finding innovative ways of adapting and enhancing traditional audio media for the modern digital landscape. While my specialization lies in mixing and mastering, my skill set is diverse, extending into the visual and interactive aspects of sound, offering a holistic approach to audio production. Most notably, within my work in developing virtual instruments.


Filmic Showreel

My showreel focussing on audio for film. I am responsible for all audio and music with the exception of Patina, where I didn’t make the score, but rather did the final master for it. For Lotus I fulfilled all roles, including directing, cinematography etc.


The hole in the stomach

I worked on the music, sound design and partly the video edit for work in progress film Hålet i magen (2024).


RFSL Uppsala Promo

I made the promo video for RFSL Uppsala’s volunteer campaign (2024), including the logo animation present at the end of the video.


Ironbound Score

I was sound designer and composer for Ironbound (2021), a film which sadly never fully went into production due to the covid-19 pandemic. The score:


Patina

I did post-sound, dialogue clean up and final mix (as well as mastering for the score) for Patina (2020) a film which aimed to frame the beauty of old age in a personal and progressive manner. It won best east Anglian film at Norwich film festival.


Lotus

Lotus (2023) is a film by me addressing the dichotomy of the digital age. There is a scene included in the showreel.

I have experience both with the Avid S6 mixer and analogue SSL consoles.
