sound design for:
short, long,
fiction, documentary, 
animation or experimental

KLABAUTERMANN is Oscar van Hoogevest designing sounds for moving images. Holding a Master's in Sound Design from the Zurich University of the Arts (ZHdK) and a Swiss Movie Award nomination for Best Sound, I enjoy exploring  multiple formats.  

In my work, I approach each project with creativity, self-reflection, and a seriousness towards the material and its authors. I am particularly fascinated by the world created in the film and in helping shape it through my sound work. A work becomes truly valuable to me when it triggers an internal process within myself.
