Sound Canvas is a forward thinking sound design studio, run by multi-award winning sound designer Tom Joyce. We specialise in cinematic, organic, fresh and story-focused sound for all forms of visuals and pride ourselves on delivering ‘outside the box’ ideas to create truly original soundscapes. With the help of a hand picked pool of sound designers and composers, we offer a genuinely bespoke sound track to your project, whether it’s making dialogue crystal clear or creating intricate audio environments from scratch.
With 15 years experience in post production, working alongside top directors and creatives, Sound Canvas is a studio that is obsessed with the power of sound to draw you into a story and take you on an adventure into new sonic worlds.
We specialise in cinematic, organic and hybrid sound design and we're experts in mixing for the many varied delivery requirements you may have, including DOLBY ATMOS. You’ll hear our work at film festivals, art exhibitions, on broadcast television and, of course, in many forms across the Internet. We pride ourselves on delivering outstanding creative and look to collaborate rather than to accumulate, so we do our very best to offer creative sound design and mixing for all budgets.
