About Me
I want to tell a story with sound that would move you and live in your memories.
I'm Tracy. A recordist, sound designer, mixer, and technical sound designer.
After working for 3 and a half years in a recording studio, I committed myself into the sonic world, and spent a year of training in Vancouver Film School, honing my skills in recording, editing, and mixing.
With solid editing skills and a love for innovative sound design, I explored diverse projects, including an opportunity as a technical sound designer for a game project, and student film projects that were constrained by budget but had great opportunities of creativity and growth.
In the game project I completed within a four-month timeframe, I showcased not only my problem-solving ability but also my organizational abilities through navigating the intricacies of implementation in middleware and game engine. I enjoy both the technical and creative aspects of sound design, and am consistently thrilled to witness a project become complete with the decent sound reach completion with exceptional sound quality.

Stage Setup
After the busy and chaotic work, the life-saving green tea.
It's a new challenge every time the sound team moves to a different place. On one occasion, at a rented outdoor stage, everything had to be set up from scratch. The night before the event, armed with a flashlight, we started by locating the light switches. In the sweltering August night without air conditioning, we gathered, transported, and tested the PA system, cables, microphones, and speakers from various nearby activity centers, making sure the stage could be assembled on time the next day.
Watch the full time-lapse of the setup below.
