the heart of AUDIOWELLS –
Jason Wells: Audio Engineer, Sound Designer, Original Music Composition
Drawing on more than 20 years of experience as sound engineer, mixer, designer, and composer in audio-post production, Jason Wells has established AUDIOWELLS as one of the most trusted audio post studios for Film, TV, Radio, and more. Wells is sought after by national agencies and global film-producers for his broad range of talents and efficient approach. He applies a skillset honed over tens-of-thousands of studio hours to provide the textures, nuance, and emotional queues that the world’s most ambitious creators rely on to set their projects apart and truly move an audience.
Technical Excellence
Wells provides a mastery of all aspects of audio post-production, especially dialogue repair, noise removal, VO recording/editing, ADR recording/editing, Foley, SFX editing, theatrical 5.1 mixing, mastering, music recording, and composition. At the forefront of technology, he’s fast, fluid, and thorough with ProTools 12.7 and a host of other industry-leading applications and hardware.
An Artist & Auteur you’ll actually enjoy working with
Wells brings a genuine – and uncommon – sensitivity to each project, offering a very relaxed and intimate working environment that emphasizes talent, fun, and a truly collaborative approach. As a composer and performer – who is no stranger to some rough multistate touring – he knows how to keep the hard work feeling light, always extending the extra effort to remain calm, cheerful and open to an evolving vision.
A former film critic, he’s a film buff who truly loves the history of sound in cinema; who loves to laugh, discuss film, play music, and eat at the local neighborhood pubs. But simmering within is a workaholic: if you talk on your phone too much when it’s time to work, you might be banished to the pinball room.
