Sound Beyond the Frame
Michael Fawzy
Sound Designer & Audio Producer

 I believe sound is more than something we hear 
It shapes emotion, creates atmosphere, and gives stories a life beyond the image



I'm Michael Fawzy, an Egyptian Sound Designer and Audio Producer with nearly two decades of experience in sound design, audio engineering, and post-production for film, television, and advertising.
My journey in audio began in 2007, and over the years, I've worked on a wide range of fiction films, documentaries, and commercial productions, collaborating with filmmakers and creative teams in Egypt and internationally.
In 2010, I co-founded the audio department at Figleaf Studios. Alongside my work there, I served as a Sound Engineer at the Bibliotheca Alexandrina Television Studio from 2016 to 2023, and in 2025, I joined Peace Cake as an Audio Producer.
My work has been part of internationally recognized films presented at major festivals, including Cannes, Locarno, Toronto, Sundance, and IDFA. I also completed Berklee Online's Audio Post-Production for Film and TV program in 2020, graduating with highest honors.
My work continues to evolve with developments in cinematic sound, including Dolby Atmos and immersive audio, exploring new ways to shape space, perspective, and storytelling through sound.
Beyond my commercial and professional projects, supporting independent cinema has always been an important part of my work. I collaborate with independent filmmakers and emerging talents, offering creative and technical support to help bring their stories to life. I believe that limited resources should never stand in the way of strong storytelling, and I'm committed to helping independent films achieve the sound quality and creative attention they deserve.
