SERENA SIMPSON
Production Sound Mixer Member IATSE 479
Serena Simpson is one of very few women Production Sound Mixers, still to this day. She takes great pride in her job and work ethic and has worked her way up through the business at an impressive clip. She got her start in the entertainment industry working in Commercial dialogue editing and Sound design. She then played a vital role in the start up of a successful Atlanta audiobook company. Her work in those Audio and Advertising related fields earned her two Telly Awards and an Audie before she transitioned to location Sound Mixing. Serena now does Commercials occasionally as Sound Mixer but now primarily works in Television and Features. She enjoys the different paces of the two formats and schedules and her versatility and experience allows her to adapt quickly to any logistical obstacles. Serena’s enthusiasm, calm and easy going personality and enjoyment of her work are always appreciated by Directors and Producers. When not on set, you can find Serena tending to her mini farm and family in Atlanta, Georgia.
