i'm steve green - 'that audio guy', designer of sound, strings musical notes together and talks into a mic.
for over 2 decades i've been crafting, manipulating, designing, composing and mixing audio to produce beautiful, stylistic and impactful soundscapes that enhance media productions. i love working with sound and helping cool folk like you achieve captivating and engaging aural experiences for your projects.
after years in various audio post and music production facilities both in new zealand and the united kingdom, i now work remote from my own studio, offering audio post solutions, music compositions and voice overs for clients anywhere in the world.

"I along with Reel Factory used Steve to sound design a super cuts reel we created for 100% Pure NZ. It showcased some of the most beautiful scenes within New Zealand and we wanted to enhance and complement the video with a beautiful soundscape and mix. Steve worked his creativity and we couldn’t be happier with the quality of work and final mix. His creative insight was a bonus and I have no reservation in recommending his work and ability. "

"i worked with steve for over three years during his time as a contract audio post engineer at virgin media uk. i would never hesitate bringing steve into my most challenging projects. i could always rely on him to be so much more than a sound engineer and his skills as a composer and arranger were a huge positive influence on the success of some of my most memorable work.

"steve came on board as sound designer and sound editor for my short film project at very short notice, with a fast approaching deadline. he promptly set to work creating a fantastic soundscape for the film in a very short timeframe. i enjoyed working with steve and his work on the film has already garnered a couple of sound fx award nominations at international film festivals!"

"steve came to our rescue! we had filmed a video for a client and when we got to post unfortunately the audio sounded very echoey and noisy. We handed it over to steve and he worked his magic. it was so easy, he worked on it remotely and within a very short amount of time the audio was back to us. the difference between how it sounded originally and how it sounds now is like night and day. we were stoked!"

audio post production
my goal is to elevate your media content and deliver a high end product with clean, clear and captivating sound, balanced with a blend of nerdy technical finesse, seasoned creative insight, a hint of badass and a sprinkling of fairy dust.
instead of having to dodge the awkward audio geek down the hall in their dark studio, i have my own remote set up and we can communicate over the interweb or via a mobile cellular telecommunication device. (said the nerd!) i can be very personable when i need to be. you might even like me? it'll still feel like you have your very own personal in house audio geek, as i'll make sure your jobs are turned around quickly and economically and i'm generally easy to get hold of.
i'll deliver commercial quality results using industry toys, built up over decades of working within the audio post production world.
you can easily sign off work without having to travel. approve projects at your convenience via online delivery. if you want to sit in on final play back, we can do that too. my studio isn't dark and i shower daily. sometimes twice.
music composition
i'm still undecided as to whether i suffered child abuse from the age of 7, having to get up everyday at 6am to practice piano scales. though, it set a foundation of discipline, musicality and creativity and now after a couple of decades weaving musical tapestries together for advertising and music production libraries, i've garnered a few skills to enhance the storytelling of your project through melody.
i'll endeavour to bring a boot load of imagination to every project you throw my way and coupled with kickass sound design, i'll bring your vision to life with a music and audio landscape that is eloquent and pleasing to you and your audiences aural senses.
my compositions range from epic and driving, to contemplative and emotive, to fun and quirky and everything in between.
voice over
yup, i get it. my voice may not be right for you. it's all good, no harm done. (we can still be friends... i'd like that.)
i can't do she / her / them / they voices, nor big booming god like voices. but, if you want a good ol' kind kiwi male voice that can do commercial, narration, promoter, corporate and what not, then I can save you a world of headaches.
no having to book through an agent or coordinate studio hire. i can hit record myself. edits and updates can be made easily post recording session.
with decades of experience recording, directing and producing voice overs, i know what's required in a great delivery... intonation, articulation... all of that stuff. so, if you prefer, you don't even need to attend the recording sessions. i can deliver multiple versions for you to review at your convenience.
i'll of course always humbly take your creative and directive feedback, afterall, this is your gig... and i still want to be friends.
you'll receive a mastered audio file ready for broadcast and with my fast turnaround times, it may even feel like you have your very own voice artist and in house audio engineer on call.
have a listen...
