Professional Work - Jacob Dean Audio

This is a space to talk about work I have done in a professional capacity. Due to the nature of creative production cycles, I cannot disclose some of the projects themselves, but I can talk about who I have worked with and the services I provided.

Studio Central Post

Studio Central Post is a new post-production house working in the same city as my alma mater, Syracuse University, headed by Robert Dehn, a veteran audio professional in the film industry, most known for his work on Moonlight, which won the Academy Award for Best Picture. You can find out more about the studio here: https://www.studiocentralpost.com/
I freelance on Studio Central Post’s currently in-production animation projects as a sound designer.

RubyShark Games

RubyShark Games is an independent studio currently working towards their debut title, “Mantra”. An impressive mix of industry veterans and talented junior developers, RubyShark began as a way to add some portfolio pieces to its devs’ resumes, but quickly became a relatively large team for an indie studio, with all its team members now dedicated to Mantra’s release. You can learn more about the studio here: https://www.rubysharkgames.com/
I currently act as an audio producer for RubyShark Games, facilitating the post-production process for their audio team and liaising with other teams at the studio to ensure a cohesive vision.

Baboon Animation

Baboon Animation is a story consultant business that works in animation. Founded by Dreamworks veterans, including Shrek and Madagascar story consultant, Mike De Seve, Baboon has become a one-stop shop for story consulting, writing, and voice production. Currently boasting a combined 31 Emmys between its core team members, the team currently works heavily in international television, including production with Cartoon Network Africa and English localization from East Asia.

During my time with Baboon, I acted primarily as an audio producer and dialogue editor for four different shows, including a new Jungle Book project and Katuri, a massively successful educational preschool show out of South Korea.
