Tim McKeown has been working as a sound mixer/engineer, and designer for the past 15 years. Tim moved to Los Angeles in early 2008 to pursue his passion for audio. Within a month of his arrival, he began working on the tech crew for the cult hit live show “Point Break Live!”.
It is there where Tim met Dave Bach, a well-known and prolific dialogue and ADR editor.
Dave became a mentor, taught him to edit dialogue, and introduced him to the world of post audio for film and television. In the months to follow Tim would secure a position as an assistant dialogue editor on his first feature film, In The Electric Mist.
Over the last decade and change, he’s worked on major studio films such as Doctor Sleep as well as many revered independent projects. In February of 2015 Tim began a career in foley at Hi Fi Foley where he gained a better understanding and appreciation of how sound can craft a story. Working at Hi Fi Foley has afforded him the opportunity to work on high-profile properties for the likes of Netflix, Amazon, Apple TV, Disney Plus, and Warner Bros. In 2018 Tim and his team were recognized by the Motion Picture Sound Editors and were nominated for Haunting of Hill House (Netflix). In 2019 the team was recognized again for Guava Island (Amazon) and won the Golden Reel for Togo (Disney Plus).
Tim continues to work with Hi Fi Foley in addition to mixing/editing and designing sound for numerous other projects. To this day he serves as the lead technician for “Point Break Live!” as well as their other live productions, “Tom Gun Live” and “Terminator Too Judgement Play.”
