All Stars

Sure, we have our share of awards, countless nominations and a few solid magazine features, but our roots are in live music. The jamming, gigging, touring kind that creates bands, makes and breaks friendships, and tests how far you’re willing to pursue what ignites your soul. That live band connection is what Pixel Audio grew out of – our original bandmates have been together for over a decade – way longer than most! It’s this rare and lasting dynamic that keeps us in-sync with each other and totally in-tune with our partners.

Ulric Corbeil Trudel

Studio Director & Sound Designer – Co-founder

As the Band Leader and catalyst for Pixel Audio’s formation, Ulric has expertly worn every hat possible in the industry: composer, project manager, sound designer and lead audio. Ulric has touched practically every project that’s come out of Pixel Audio since its inception. His inimitable melodic talent and uncanny ability to navigate vastly different worlds of sound with natural ease is a big reason why we’re bigger than ever today. Ulric guides Pixel’s long-term vision strategy the same way he refines his audio skills – through teamwork, iteration-based creation, and abiding by the company motto he helped write: collaborate, explore, create, play.

Eric Shaw

Composer & Audio artist – Co-founder

Eric made his first movie soundtrack in 1998 and hasn’t looked back since. While studying music and cinema in college and university, he played keys for a slew of Montreal rock bands, which led to composing music for dozens of artist albums, and eventually theatre productions, video game, movie and web soundtracks as lead audio. The awards and recognition Eric has garnered throughout his career are the most apt reflection of excellence driven by genuine passion.

Mathieu Beaudet

Composer & Audio artist – Co-founder

Mathieu’s exceptional skill and reputation for musical arrangement and direction he owes to countless years playing and composing for experimental orchestras, jazz bands and even a few barbershop quartets on Montreal’s highly eclectic music scene. He’s been creating music on computers since the mid-90’s, allying technology and tradition in ways that push all the boundaries. The last twenty years saw him composing music for a multitude of projects spanning film, TV, theatre, and of course – video games.

Sean Gauthier Neilson

Business Development & Marketing – Co-founder

Sean is that guy at the back of the room taking it all in, who then meets you backstage with a plan to blow you up. Sean rocks Pixel Audio’s management, marketing, and business development. While the other guys are geeking out in the studio, Sean’s pulling the contracts, creating new opportunities, and cementing the strategic partnerships necessary to keep this show on the road.

Isabelle Beaulieu

Sound Designer

Isabelle brought her genius to the Pixel team in 2018. Creative to the core with a musical background, she studied Film Animation in university, where her passion for sound design was born. Yet it’s probably Isabelle’s fearlessness where it comes to technology, single-handedly building systems from scratch with software like Wwise, unreal, and unity for key Pixel projects that have cemented her position within the company.

Charles-André Gaudreau

Casting, voice director & producer

Charles-André is a seasoned and certified professional actor and theatre director with over 15 years in the business, working non-stop since he graduated. He’s been the voice for household brand names across Quebec, as well as characters from video games like Assassin’s Creed. Who better to manage our voice actors and direct recordings? When our client’s characters start to feel like real people, it’s thanks to Charles-André.

Where the Magic Happens

Encased in pine and downright spa-like, the Pixel Audio studio feels more cottage up north than downtown underground. The effect is an instant ease in all who come through. This disarming vibe that innocently diffuses inhibitions while coaxing creativity is often the experience clients refer to the most when praising Pixel Audio.
