I've had the good fortune of working with Giovane for the past few years. While working on Transformers Reactivate and Project Astrid, he’s contributed to all aspects of game audio, such as Foley, Ambiences, Enemies, UI, Weapons and Cinematics. Gio is exceptionally receptive to feedback, provides constructive input to others, and consistently delivers high-quality work. In addition to his project contributions, he runs a weekly design session and a company-wide audio newsletter, to keep the wider team better informed what we’re working on. He’s also quick to download new audio libraries when they become available. All of this points to how much he values the audio department and his dedication to team growth. Gio is a special talent and unbelievably easy to work with. Any team lucky enough to collaborate with him will very quickly realize they’ve struck gold.

Giovane has allowed the company to not only raise the bar in audio design but launch that bar into the stratosphere and beyond. His technical ability to provide high-quality audio effects and soundtracks is only parallel to his sensibilities to reach into a player's soul via sound. He has a deep understanding of music and an incredible ability to enhance any concepts thrown at him. He can produce his own material and manage third-party creators both creatively and technically, proving a master at establishing much of the pipeline process of all projects that me and him were involved in. Some of the most memorable experiences I had where when Giovane would submit a video of his early implementations of character audio or over gameplay of a prototype, adding such richness to these experiences that always left my heart pounding stronger and left goosebumps at every new SFX realized.

I worked with Giovane on Horizon Chase & Horizon Chase Turbo. I've found him to be very hard working, and a great all round "audio person". He made some great creative choices in the game and videos for those titles, things you would normally only expect someone with twice his experience to do. His sound design work is superb and is developing nicely as a composer to.

Working with Giovane over the last 3 years has been a pleasure. His great work shows a deep understanding of audio design principles & techniques, and he consistently communicates effectively with the team about the tools he needs to implement his work. On top of this, Gio never stops being a friendly and approachable person & is a tremendous asset to any team. I would gladly work with Gio again!

Giovane is a brilliant Audio Designer and a master at his craft. He can work quickly to get great results and is very efficient with his workflows. He gives excellent feedback and also receives feedback very well himself. Gio was my manager for a short while and was very thorough in any 1 on 1 meetings we had. He is a lovely person to work with and is a fantastic team member to have, due to his positive attitude and excellent work ethic.
