About Me
My name is Nihar Gagneja, and I'm a location sound mixer and sound editor based in Chicago. I have experience across a variety of different content formats including commercial, documetnary, and narrative. My past clients include Volkswagen and Vice Media.
I am able to tailor a sound package for your productions needs, from run-and-gun ENG work to cart-based narrative mixing.
Please feel free reach out with any questions. Thanks!
