About
Hey there! I’m Joel D. Catalan, CAS, an Emmy-nominated re-recording mixer and supervising sound editor with 16 years of experience in the industry. At Mastering Post-Production Sound, our mission is to empower sound pros like you to navigate, believe, and thrive in the post-production sound industry.
We get it—the post-sound journey can be tough and lonely. That's why we're here to build a supportive and vibrant community where no one travels alone. While there are plenty of resources out there focusing on the technical stuff, we stand out by emphasizing the essential soft skills needed to not just break into the industry but to build a sustainable and fulfilling career.
I’m passionate about bringing kindness, tolerance, love, compassion, empathy, and generosity to an industry that's often seen as cut-throat and cold. Here, we value shared experiences, authentic relationships, and the collective wisdom of our sound tribe. Thanks for being part of our community!
