Nick Leyers is a sound designer and re-recording mixer. From his own 9.1.4 Atmos and Auro-3D studio in Antwerp, he handles the entire post-production chain: dialogue editing, ADR, foley, sound design and final mix, in every format from mono to Atmos.
His sound design has won multiple awards, including for the short films Sound of the Somme and Eximo, and he contributed to acclaimed television work such as Boris. His promo work has been recognised as well, at the Gema Awards.
Nick's work for picture began in dubbing, on titles like The Good Dinosaur, Zootropolis and Cars 3. What started there as recording gradually grew into every other stage of post-production.
But picture wasn't his first love. That was music. Guitar lessons at music school led to a degree in Music Production from the Ghent Conservatory in 2013. Those years covered just about everything: songwriting, producing bands, big band arrangements, live recording, symphony orchestras.
Studios became a second home. They still are.
Nick Leyers is sounddesigner en re-recording mixer. Hij werkt vanuit zijn eigen 9.1.4 Atmos- en Auro-3D-studio in Antwerpen en neemt de volledige postketen voor zijn rekening: dialoogmontage, ADR, foley, sounddesign en eindmix, in elk formaat van mono tot Atmos.
Zijn sounddesign werd meermaals bekroond, onder meer voor de kortfilms Sound of the Somme en Eximo, en hij werkte mee aan gelauwerd televisiewerk zoals Boris. Ook zijn promowerk viel in de prijzen, bij de Gema Awards.
Dat werk voor beeld begon bij dubbing, met titels als The Good Dinosaur, Zootropolis en Cars 3. Wat daar als opnamewerk startte, breidde stelselmatig uit tot de rest van de postproductie.
Maar beeld was niet de eerste liefde. Dat was muziek. Wat begon met gitaren in de muziekschool, leidde in 2013 tot een diploma Music Producer aan het Conservatorium van Gent. In die jaren passeerde zowat alles: songwriting, bands produceren, bigbandarrangementen, live-opnames, symfonische orkesten.
Studio's werden een tweede thuis. Dat zijn ze gebleven.
