Gene Chaban, Boston-based sound designer and dialogue editor wearing a black shirt

Gene Chaban is a Boston-based sound designer and dialogue editor from Ukraine, with background in audio for documentaries, commercials and games.

He’s worked on Severance, Season 2 and the VR game Nock, among many other projects. Gene’s work is driven by a passion for experimentation. Crafting an emotionally resonant experience lies at the core of every project he delivers.

When not designing sound, he’s out hiking, field recording, or hanging with his wife and their cat, Kira.

“Gene brought a fresh new sound to Nock that helped our DLC content really pop. He’s easy to work with and just flat out makes cool sounds.”

- Christopher Lane/ Audio Lead at Nock

“Collaborative and dedicated, Gene is incredible to work with! The level of attention to detail he pours into his work is unmistakable, resulting in sound designs that are a testament to his skill.”

- Kacey Layson/ Director of Kilig!

“Gene is an absolute wizard! He has the capacity to hear the emotions you are trying to deliver as an artist and bring them out with his own use of sound in exactly the right way. He is efficient, professional and thorough while remaining very sensitive to the work and the artist’s wishes.”
