Pushing the envelope of sound technology to create never-before-heard audio

Bringing the audience into an entirely different natural world, often hidden to the naked eye… 

Captivating families across the globe with an Emmy award-winning, visual and aural sensation

A sound designer’s dream. The energy in the room after the first spotting session was equal parts excitement and horror….

Creating a sense of place. Waking pre-dawn to catch the morning chorus, recording through the midday heat and into the night…

Think of us like the Swiss Army knife of sound design.

With all the tools you need for astonishing results: finely tuned processes, paragonic tech, and Emmy award-winning sound designers.

Care and creativity, with a healthy dose of practicality.

You need a soundtrack that exceeds your wildest expectations. But budget and deadlines are no joke. So we’ve nailed how to hit them bang on, without sacrificing the quality and inventive spirit we’re known for.

The studios.

With Brisbane’s first theatrically certified Dolby Atmos studio and acoustic design by the minds behind Abbey Road Studios, our world-class facilities blur the line between reality and imagination. 

Folks we've worked with.

As the story goes...

"Folklore’s work is innovative, pleasingly detailed and technically flawless. At a demanding stage of delivery these guys are a pleasure to work with and always deliver a value add to our scripted projects."

"The entire sound world of ‘Loveland’ was created from scratch... tracking from its unique real-world source through a sound design process that was driven by discovery, creativity and integrity to the story world, in a manner that demonstrated Thom’s creative acumen, breadth of professional capacities and his unwavering commitment to delivering on my creative vision.”

"Thom and his team at Folklore Sound and Music are a pleasure to work with in every way. They are not only technically proficient but are also highly creative, always bringing a raft of design ideas to the film and TV sound space that we’ve collaborated on."

Let's make
some magic.

Always was, always will be.

Folklore Sound acknowledge the Turrbal and Jagera people as the traditional owners and custodians of the land on which we operate, and that sovereignty has never been ceded. We pay our respects to Elders past and present.

We respect that First Nations People have a deep connection to this land, and appreciate the enduring role that art has played on these lands for countless generations, spanning thousands of years. It is a privilege for us to collaborate with artists who carry on the rich creative heritage of one of the world’s most ancient and thriving cultures.
