Remote Foley Artist
Description
Remote Foley Artist Role
About the Role
Ever wondered who breathes life into the soft thud of footsteps in a horror movie or the satisfying clink of glass in a drama scene? That's where you come in. We are seeking a Remote Foley Artist with a passion for imaginative sound design, someone who can make audiences feel scenes, without ever being seen. This is your opportunity to collaborate with visionary directors and sound engineers across the globe, all from the comfort of your own creative space.
We believe that powerful sound can shift a story’s entire emotional arc. From feature films to indie game productions, your work will become the heartbeat behind every narrative beat. If you're excited by the idea of turning a bag of cornstarch into crunching snow, then you might be our perfect fit. This role pays $52,730 annually, with potential bonuses based on project milestones.
Our Journey & Vision
Our journey began with a mission to reinvent how stories are told through sound. What started as a passion project by a small team of audio rebels has evolved into a global audio production house renowned for its immersive storytelling and boundary-pushing experimentation. We've collaborated on everything from Oscar-nominated films to cult-favorite podcasts and award-winning commercials.
We're not just building sounds—we're crafting invisible characters that leave a lasting impression. Join us, and help evolve the future of auditory storytelling. Together, we’ll break molds and sync our imagination with the magic of motion.
Key Responsibilities
🎧 Sonic Craftsmanship
- Recreate everyday and abstract sounds that align perfectly with on-screen action
- Enhance realism and emotion through inventive audio design
- Adapt creatively to script, tone, and genre cues for each project
🛠️ Audio Experimentation
- Use unconventional tools to develop new sound textures (who knew celery sticks could mimic broken bones?)
- Regularly brainstorm with directors, editors, and post-production teams for accurate audio matching
🎬 Sync & Timing Precision
- Sync Foley elements seamlessly to match movement, rhythm, and tempo
- Ensure delivery of clean, high-fidelity audio files formatted to industry standards
🧠 Collaboration & Feedback
- Work in tandem with sound designers and mixers for balanced final outputs
- Be open to constructive feedback and adapt swiftly to creative direction shifts
Work Environment & Culture
This is a fully remote role, designed for audio artists who thrive in flexible yet high-performing spaces. You’ll have autonomy to experiment, access to cutting-edge software, and support from a collaborative network of creatives. Our culture celebrates weird ideas, late-night sound inspirations, and moments of spontaneous brilliance.
You’ll participate in weekly virtual meetups, live-streamed studio demos, and occasional remote Foley battles (yes, those are real and wildly fun). Creativity isn't just encouraged here—it’s the pulse of everything we do.
Tools & Technology
- Digital Audio Workstations (DAWs) like Pro Tools, Reaper, or Logic Pro X
- High-quality microphones and audio interfaces
- Sound library software (Splice, Soundly, Boom Library)
- Synchronization tools for precise audio-to-video matching
- Cloud-based collaboration platforms (Frame.io, Trello, Notion)
Having a decent Foley studio setup with various props is a plus, but not required—we'll help you assemble what you need.
Qualifications & Must-Have Traits
- Proven experience as a Foley Artist in film, TV, or digital media
- Firm grasp of timing, pitch, and scene alignment
- Creative problem solver with a knack for improvisation
- Detail-oriented, with an obsessive ear for nuance
- Skilled at organizing your workflow and thriving in self-directed environments
- Bonus: Familiarity with storytelling formats like podcasts, animation, or VR
We’re looking for people who love sound the way others love silence. If your idea of fun involves exploring a junkyard for the perfect clanging sound or reorganizing your garage into a symphony of chaos, we can’t wait to meet you.
Growth Opportunities
As we grow, so can you. This role opens pathways into:
- Senior Sound Designer or Audio Director roles
- Cross-collaborative projects across gaming, film, and branded content
- Creative mentorship programs where you can coach aspiring Foley artists
- New tech exploration in AR/VR spatial sound design
Our team invests in your potential, offering annual learning stipends, mentorship from audio industry veterans, and the chance to lead innovative projects that redefine what's possible in sound.
What You'll Love About Working Here
- Flexible schedule and global team collaboration
- Competitive pay with milestone-based incentives
- Annual gear-upgrades and studio enhancement support
- Regular creative sprints and audio show-and-tells
- A community that gets excited about sound the way most people get excited about free pizza
