Winner of the Robert Award for Best Sound and nominated for three Academy Awards, “Flee” (Flukt) redefined the use of sound in animated documentary.
The mix and sound design weave dialogue, ambience, and memory into a single, emotionally resonant experience.

— Robert Award

“As its title suggests, Songs of Earth is largely a sonic experience – an audio-visual masterpiece that enhances Earth’s own music … This required a great collaborative effort between the director, cinematographer, editor, sound designer and field recorder.”

— Definition

“The sound design of TRON: Ares is impressive and particularly notable during the action sequences … a character getting hit by an Identity Disc … makes you feel as if you are right there.”

— Loud and Clear
