About me
Matt M. Jacobson, also known as Matt or MJ, is an American sound designer who was born in San Francisco and raised in Palo Alto, California. His love of sound design began when he first heard the lightsaber sound in Star Wars, attributing Ben Burtt as a tremendous role model for his work. He started experimenting with sounds and timbre using his tuba in his undergrad at Northwestern University in Chicago Illinois; he graduated with a degree in music performance for tuba and an ad hoc degree in sound design and technology in 2012. He moved back home to San Francisco to attend a sound and music production studio called Pyramind Studios where he discovered his love of post-production and surround sound mixing and recently finished the challenging curriculum of the Vancouver Film School's Sound Design for Media program with high marks in August 2016. He has seven years of Pro Tools experience in addition to both Pro Tools Post/Music Production 310p/310m certificates. He has extensively studied post-production editing and mixing for film and linear media with Pro Tools 11 HD (and now 12 HD) and sound design and implementation for games with programs such as Wwise, Unity, FMOD, Kyma, and Max. You can find more of his work at mattjacobsonsound.comMatt is determined, creative, and original. He loves to think outside the box and enjoys the iterative process of creative destruction, priding himself on his humility, discernment, alacrity, deep focus (flow), attention to detail, modesty, and communication skills. He delivers thoughtful, detailed-orientated content that is promptly catered directly to the client with the mantra of "underpromise and overperform." Matt has a performance and musical background and loves collaborating with people. He is continually captivated by the idea of psychoacoustics and music psychology or the study of the way people perceive sounds and music on a psychological level. His biggest ambition in life is to change the world with sound.
