Union Location Sound Mixer with gear based in Dallas/ Fort Worth, Texas. Commercial, Corporate, Scripted, Reality and Documentary.
JIM DINEEN, CAS : Sound Supervisor / Location Sound Mixer
From the recording studio to major network television sets, I have been providing professional audio services for 20 years. With a breadth of experience and a keen "ear" for detail I pride myself on bridging the gap between technical aptitude and creativity to deliver clean and clear audio quickly, efficiently and reliably.
I am a Dallas/ Fort Worth, Texas based Sound Supervisor / A1 / Location Sound Mixer. I specialize in recording production audio for broadcast across a variety of platforms and circumstances. All of my multitrack sound packages are professional grade and can be designed and built to your specific production requirements.
Every project is different and it takes careful planning and evaluation to make sure it's handled properly from the field through post. I can ensure you will get industry standard results backed with years of diverse experience- I'm more than just another bag mixer with a fancy website. Using a personalized, hands on approach I can see the job through from start to finish making certain it's getting the treatment it needs. Trusting your production sound with a "local hire" can be daunting, but I have spent years honing my craft, learning from some of the best production mixers, engineers and technicians from Los Angeles to Boston. I'm a proven commodity with the credits and references to prove it!
My resume includes corporate, commercial, scripted/narrative, reality/docu-series and verité documentary work.
Feel free to bring me any questions about your current or upcoming projects to see how I can best fulfill your location sound needs.
