About Erick Cifuentes

Audio director | USA | New York

With over 24 years in the Voiceover industry, I’ve worn many hats—Director, Producer, Engineer, Editor, and Sound Designer—bringing stories to life across every medium imaginable. Games, animation, film, TV, audiobooks, audio dramas, podcasts, apps, AI—you name it, I’ve probably worked on it. Clients include some of the most recognizable names in entertainment such as Disney, Netflix, DreamWorks, HBO, Nickelodeon, PlayStation, and Spotify, but I also love collaborating with indie teams and fresh creative voices.

I specialize in managing full-cycle audio production—from initial planning to final mix—with a deep understanding of what makes performances not only shine but streamline the post process. My hands-on experience across roles has helped me mentor over 50 engineers, editors, and mixers, while shaping how I direct talent for both creative excellence and production efficiency. I take a big-picture approach when directing—focusing on getting it right in the studio to minimize downstream edits and keep projects on time and under budget. This saves clients both time and money without compromising quality.

Lately, I’ve stepped into the future, helping companies like Spotify, Amazon, and VOISEED refine AI voice technologies and large language models. Whether it’s cutting dialogue for a AAA game or developing groundbreaking tools for the next generation of audio, I’m always focused on quality, consistency, and storytelling.

I’m partnered with top-tier recording studios in Los Angeles and New York, offering full-service VO production—soup to nuts!
