"I design immersive sonic experiences”

Sound Design

& Premium Mixing

With over two decades as a sound artist, I transform passion into evocative soundscapes that tell stories and stir emotions.

Based at Unidentified Sound Object – my Milan studio – I direct voice talents and weave together custom SFX, field recordings and layered mixes for documentaries, films, podcasts and commercials.

Driven by curiosity, I’ve worked across TV, cinema, radio ads, installations and exhibitions, always aiming to connect with both brand and audience.

SFX Libraries

delivering curated sound effects worldwide

I produce and distribute high‑quality SFX libraries – crafted with unique recording and synthesis techniques, distributed worldwide.

My collections feature a diverse range of commercially usable sounds, created from unconventional sources like analog and digital synthesis, and unique microphone techniques.

Spatial Audio

for immersive 3D experiences

Working from my control room – equipped with Dolby Atmos – I create three-dimensional audio worlds using Dolby Atmos, Ambisonics, binaural and object-based formats.

I position sounds – direction, distance and motion – to make listeners feel present. Ideal for VR/AR projects, installations or cinematic storytelling.

Music & Sonic Branding

Custom tracks and sonic identities for brands

Songs of the Water Spirits is the soundtrack for Nicolò Bongiorno‘s latest film. In collaboration with Walter Marocchi, we composed a distinctive sonic journey through India’s Ladakh region, blending electronic elements with guitar work. The addition of wind instruments and ethereal vocals elevates the score, making it an immersive listen for those who appreciate the essence of nature.

On-set recording and post‑mixing (dialogue, ambience, SFX)

Together with Lorenzo di Tria, we bring exceptional on‑location sound to films, commercials and TV.
With a foundation in audio post-production, we refine on‑set recordings to support the storytelling – capturing clean dialogue and ambient sound, perfectly synced to picture. Reliable and unobtrusive, we deliver clarity and authenticity.

Our services include:

  • Crystal‑clear dialogue and environmental ambiences

  • Expert wiring and discreet on‑set setup

  • Precision audio–video synchronization

  • Detailed metadata logging for post-production workflow

ISTITUTO EUROPEO DI DESIGN

Since 2013, I’ve had the pleasure of teaching sound design at the Istituto Europeo di Design (IED), a globally esteemed institution.

My experience has been deeply rewarding as I’ve been able to share my expertise with the next generation of creative talent.

It’s been a privilege to contribute to each student’s development, using my own career lessons to guide them toward realizing their dreams and achieving their highest potential.

At IED, I teach sound design, covering tools and platforms for audio post-production, creating original sound elements for mix-to-picture, and techniques for 3D audio mixing and surround sound.
