Send us Fan Mail

Sound designer and supervising sound editor Dashen “Dash” Naidoo joins me on The Staffa Corner Podcast to explore the sound behind Trap and Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City. From building terrifying zombie voices to balancing concert crowds with quiet tension, Dash reveals how carefully chosen sounds shape a story and pull audiences into its world.

I love highlighting the creative people whose contributions too often go unnoticed, and Dash offers a fascinating look at this essential part of filmmaking. We discuss how Back to the Future sparked his imagination, why a creaky studio door became worth recording, and how remaining a student of his craft keeps him inspired.
