Therapy has signed sound designer Eddie Kim who comes over from 740 Sound Design & Mix, his roost for the past seven years. His work spans spots, features, shorts, documentaries, music videos and video games. Kim’s sonic stylings were notably featured in this year’s Super Bowl spots “A Dream Car. For Real Life” for Kia out of David&Goliath and the classic cartoon character-infused “Everyone” for Metlife out of Goodby, Silverstein & Partners.
Kim has also lent his audio acumen to feature films including 8 Mile, Riding Giants, Dogtown and Z Boys, and Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, and top video game titles including “Prince of Persia: Warrior Within” and “Enter the Matrix.”
While earning a BFA in Film from San Francisco-based Academy of Art University, Kim developed his audio style by immersing himself in Bay Area culture as a highly sought-after D.J. After a year working on projects with local Outpost Studios, he headed south to Los Angeles where he spent the next five years as a sound designer at Danetracks, Inc., before landing at 740 Sound Design.
Kim’s work over the years has garnered assorted awards at such competitions as Cannes, the AICP Show, D&ADs and the Clios. On the web, he has worked on an educational animated series that teaches the ABC’s of literacy to children around the world. Kim also recently contributed to a Los Angeles MOCA installation for a project created by C.R. Stacyk.
Led by founders Joe DiSanto, John Ramsey, Wren Waters and Doobie White, Therapy offers talent and resources spanning creative editorial, sound, design and postproduction.
Beyoncé’s Halftime Show Highlighted Netflix’s NFL Debut On Xmas Day
Beyoncé provided more excitement than either game during Netflix's NFL debut on Christmas Day.
