ABOUT

Mike Matthews

Sound Supervisor, Sound Mixer

Montana Location Sound Mixer for your production audio recording needs. Union or non-union.

I’m Mike Matthews, a veteran full time freelance production sound mixer and location sound recordist. I’m an IATSE Local 488 member but I can also work non-union gigs.

I’ve worked on features, docs, network news, commercials, TV and corporate shoots for a wide variety of networks, agencies and production companies since I began in the business in 2009.  With over 200 credits, I have been in many challenging sound situations and have the experience, resourcefulness and creativity to get the job done right.

My passport is up to date and I’m ready to travel anywhere you need good sound for as long as your project takes or I’m happy to work as a local in my home towns of Missoula, MT or Tucson, AZ.  I have worked in extreme conditions, from Arizona’s intense desert heat to brutally cold Montana winter days.

I have excellent professional equipment that I am always adding to.  I am a positive team player always willing to go the extra mile to get it done right.  I also have an MFA in digital film making and can be useful in any aspect of production.

I would love to work with you to give you the best possible audio for your production.

What you really are hiring me for is my experience recording audio in imperfect conditions. My ability to anticipate and quickly correct issues based on changing circumstances is what sets me apart from the average sound mixer.

Good sound is critical.

 

Sound is 50% of any movie or show.  You can get away with a less-than-perfect picture if the sound is good but bad audio will completely ruin a story no matter how great picture looks.

Fixing badly recorded audio in post or doing ADR will ALWAYS cost more more than doing it right the first time.  It’s not always possible to fix audio in post and performances usually suffer when they are not in the moment.  

Production is usually willing to spend what is necessary on the latest RED or Alexa 4k camera and an experienced crew for a great picture so budgeting enough for an accomplished, veteran sound mixer with professional gear to complete your production team makes complete creative and business sense. You will get better performances and it will cost you less in the long run

SERVICES
& SKILLS

What you really are hiring me for is my experience recording audio in imperfect conditions.
My ability to anticipate and quickly correct issues based on changing circumstances
is what sets me apart from the average sound mixer.

Recording Audio

It sounds so simple.  It actually is if conditions are perfect, unfortunately they never are. What you are really paying for is my experience recording audio in imperfect conditions and my ability to overcome them.

Audio Post Production and Sound Design

Full sound design, dialog editing, SFX recording and sweetening, music mixing and stem printing from my 500 sq foot ProTools Ultimate studio.

Frequency Coordination

Intermodulation on wireless is an ugly thing.  Coordinating frequencies to avoid harmonic interference can be complicated and you often don’t know there is an issue until the last minute.  I can solve this issue for you.  FCC call sign WQQM427.

Experience

My knowledge of proper gain staging so post can deal with whispers and shouts without having to deal with a high noise floor or clipping is just a tiny part of the benefit of years of experience.

ADR and VO

If you do need to do some ADR or voice over, you don’t need to go to LA.  I have a 500 square foot studio in my house in Missoula where I record ADR, VO, podcasts and even music when I’m not out working on a project.

Transcription Recording

Transcription recording is available when needed. I can record a separate time code stamped mp3 file or a file with LTC on one channel and scratch audio on the other depending on the requirements of your transcription service.

Sound Supervising

I am experienced and effective supervising other mixers, coordinating frequencies among multiple wireless kits and planning and managing post workflow for multiple mixers and cameras.

Budget planning

Not many sound mixers have a BA in business with an accounting concentration or spent years preparing budgets for cities and counties. I may be the only one. I can help you put together a realistic, efficient audio budget for your project.  Know what you must have and what it will cost.

Location Scouting for Audio

Sometimes you return to a set that you scouted earlier and realize you are in an airline flight path or right next to train tracks.  It looked so great, you may not have noticed the audio issues.  My critical listening skills could save you some headaches down the road.

CLIENTS &
TESTIMONIALS

I have had the opportunity to work for some fantastic people and companies.  Most of the jobs I get now are from repeat business or referrals.  As a freelancer, my good name means everything.
I work very hard to always do the kind of job that will get me hired back.
