Sounddogs began recording sound effects in 1990 and built up a sizable library used in Hollywood films. In 2004 we acquired the sound library and trademark of SoundStorm, a sound editorial company nominated for eight Academy Awards, winning for The Ghost and the Darkness. SoundStorm has a fascinating history because its corporate predecessor was a company called Walla Works, which had employed the founding partners of Soundelux, arguably the greatest sound editorial company of all time. In 2014 Sounddogs acquired the sound library assets and trademarks of Todd-AO / Soundelux. The history of these great companies is worthy of a book.

In addition to our acquisitions, Sounddogs continues to travel the world recording unique and challenging sounds to meet all of your needs. The list of movies and tv shows our sounds have been designed with is so extensive it would be safe to say that a majority of Hollywood productions contain sounds from Sounddogs’ libraries.
