What Makes Cinematic Waves
DIFFERENT?
We believe that sound speaks for itself, and it deserves to be amplified.
That’s why for us, there is nothing more satisfying than collaborating with directors, filmmakers, and producers to help them realize their creative vision through the power of sound.
We believe that truly compelling sound design is created at the intersection of big vision, precise artistry, and advanced technological know-how. And that’s what we’re committed to bringing to each and every project that moves through our studios.
Unlike our larger competitors, we bring uniquely customized, one-on-one attention to each project we work on and treat everything we work on as if it were our own. We proudly create a small-town feel, with a global sound. Because for us, sound design is more than a practice. It’s in our passion.
Let us help you realize your vision through the power of sound-creation, post-production, mixing, and mastering.
Your sound matters. Let’s amplify it.
LUKE DEARDOFF
Meet the FOUNDER

Our Client EXPERIENCE
"I never feel my film projects are alive until I hear the sound design, and what Luke did for my short was exactly that. He made it come alive for me. I felt like it was living and breathing all of a sudden, and was grateful for all the attention to detail he had, from foley to dialogue editing to the mix, and everywhere in between."
NOLAN GOFF
Director
“Throughout various creative film projects, I've had the pleasure of watching Luke Deardoff work passionately and effectively in creating natural and seamless sound design that fits the specific character and vision of even the most nuanced pieces. Any director knows that talent is hard to come by, but a person who is a joy to work with is even harder.
