Yann is a member of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (Oscars.org). Growing up in West Africa, Yann dreamed of becoming a sound designer in Tinseltown. A TV addict at 9, with no television at home, he was forced to hang out with neighbors so he could watch his favorite shows. Yann got his first Mac in the 80's and fell hard for his little computer. After a short stint hitting the skins for the seminal trash rock band Poubelle, Yann resumed chasing his dream of cutting rad sounds for films, on a Mac. He quickly moved to Paris, Montreal, Toronto but his sights were always on Los Angeles. He arrived in West Los Angeles in the glorious 90's, a time when banks would lend you money if you had a pulse, and so he bought a house on the Westside, best thing he ever did. The equally best thing that happened is : he opened his heart and got married and stayed married, to the same woman! "First you get the money then you get the woman" isn't that what the man says ? Then what ? Then you score a love pad in Paris ! which we did. In the digital Wild West of the LA post scene, Yann proceeded to learn everything he knows working for the most uncompromising directors in Hollywood, Michael Mann, Peter Berg, Brett Ratner, to name a few ; Guys famous for turning their post-production process into absolute angst fests that deliver cinematic magic. Yann still spends countless hours in dark rooms surrounded by enormous screens creating sounds for similarly OCD directors. He is close to achieving Nirvana in Hollywood, but his obsession with sound could get in the way.Sound Designer, Supervising Sound Editor- Sound Department

Richard Yawn is an Emmy nominated Supervising Sound Editor. He has been involved with the creation of over 140 Feature Film and Television soundtracks across a range of genres, including Action, Drama, Musicals, Comedy and Science Fiction.
As resourceful sound artist and with his years of experience, Yawn applies the same rigorous attention to detail and creativity to all projects he's involved with. Whether it's a studio blockbuster, a high profile streaming series, a smaller independent film, or a network episodic drama. His aim is to deliver a unique distinctive soundtrack that fulfills the filmmaker's vision and brings the story to life.
"Film Making and Sound Design is a craft for which I am fortunate to be a part of. Every film is distinct and takes on it's own life during the sound design phase. I love sharing in that process and being able to make a creative contribution to something that lives forever."
Past:
Richard started his film career early on working in Ariel Cinematography at Tyler Camera Systems Inc. in the early 80's. "It was a lot of fun working around helicopters and cameras, but it was very specialized and the work was limited."
He quickly discovered a passion for the craft of Sound Editing and Design while working on independent films. "I was always the guy they would hand the Nagra to, to go get fresh sounds for whatever film we working on at the time. I love the process of finding that interesting sound, recording something new and fitting it in the film."
Richard was an Operating Partner and Supervising Sound Editor as part of the SoundStorm Six, with SoundStorm Inc. in Burbank, CA. As a company SoundStorm earned five Academy Award Nominations and a win for "The Ghost and The Darkness."Sound Designer, Sound Effects Editor- Sound Department
