Sound Design for Animation

What is this course about?

Get started with Cubase 9.5. In the course, you will master one of the most convenient tools for working with sound design, as well as step by step study the process of creating all the elements of sound effects. We’ll concentrate on the niche side of sound production, which is work with animation videos. No matter if it is an explainer video telling the story of a company and its products or a visual essay (an author’s statement on a certain topic), the approach studied at the course works equally well for creating sound design in any sphere of visual media.

Hi guys, I’m Dmitry Novozhilov!

Since 2012, we have been creating music and sound design for various media projects for companies all over the world, such as Snapchat, McDonald’s, Mastercard, Pornhub, Google, Acronis and many others.

In this course, I’ll try to cover in detail the approach we have in our studio to creating sound effects. I hope our experience will help you bring your works to a qualitatively new level of sounding.
