  • Nick August-Perna - Director -BAFTA nominated 'Tell them you love me'

    “Tristan is a wonderful sound artist and fantastic collaborator. He brought great ideas to the table and patiently and thoughtfully helped to bring my film, Tell Them You Love Me, to another level. Highly recommend and hope to work with him again soon.”

  • Rosanna Xia - Author, Reporter at LA Times

    Brilliant, dedicated, and incredibly thoughtful, Tristan put so much care into every detail and subtlety -- and elevated our film in remarkable and profound ways. He and the team at Gigantic really took the time to understand the sonic and emotional depth of every moment, and they went above and beyond in making the film a film that you truly experience and feel.

    Tristan is also so kind and just such a joy to work with. A wonderful collaborator and a true master of the craft.

  • Brandon Kramer - Director - Berlinale documentary award winner 'Holding Liat'

    Tristan masterfully internalized the narrative, tone, and ethics of our film in the sound editing and design. Our film is a cinema verite film profiling a family navigating their trauma and divergent views around an extremely sensitive issue. Our storytelling approach was to follow the protagonists as authentically as possible embracing their multiple perspects, leaning into the complexity and grey areas and allowing audiences the space to experience the film with openness and posing more questions than answers. This narrative approach required delicate sound editing and design that could ensure that the natural dialogue, human and environmental soundscape came through with clarity and depth, but without cinematic embellishment or emotional manipulation. The Gigantic team remained deeply committed to the real-life sounds to enhance the rawness of every moment experienced by the protagonists, and avoided all tendencies to stray from enhancing what was present in the scene itself. Every moment was handled with extraordinary precision and care - from a subtle rustle of clothing during a father-daughter embrace to the sound of planes flying over a Kibbutz to the hollow footsteps walking the halls of power in Washington, D.C.

  • Scott Aharoni - Founder Curious Gremlin

    “The best in the game. Dedicated. Hard working. Creative. Goes above and beyond and really puts his all into this craft. Wouldn’t go anywhere else for post sound work than Tristan.”

  • Roger Mancusi - Producer

    Working with Tristan and his team on BUNNYLOVR was great. The communication was always clear and the work was excellent, despite the rushed post timeline given the festival acceptance and our original production dates. I look forward to working with him again.

  • Daniel Straub - Director 'Out of Plain Sight'

    “The work Tristan did on our film took it to a completely different level. The level of precision and creativity in his work is unrivaled, and his collaboration and kindness made the process one of the most rewarding working relationships I’ve ever had.


    Hearing the work he did was like experiencing the film for the first time ever, and I had watched it hundreds of times already. As our film has played on the festival circuit, we’ve been complimented about the sonic layer at every screening.”

  • Jesse Peterson - Sound editor

    "I'm about to begin my fifth or sixth project where I’ve had the pleasure of handling FX editing while Tristan takes on the mix. Every time, I’m genuinely excited to collaborate with him because of his enthusiasm and dedication to the craft.

    Tristan isn’t just focused on getting the job done—he brings a level of passion and creative investment that elevates every project. His excitement mirrors that of the original creators, and that energy is reflected in his work. I firmly believe that a deep love for storytelling and sound is essential to crafting impactful moments for an audience, and Tristan embodies this quality effortlessly."
