Vicky Vien
Hey there!
My name is Vicky Vien (she/her) I am a production sound mixer based in Boulder County.
I am a first generation Chinese/Vietnamese American from Louisville, CO. Much of my youth was spent at my family’s restaurant in Downtown Louisville where my sister, cousins, and I would get up to all sorts of shenanigans. Growing up in a restaurant also meant I soon learned many aspects of customer service and at times let’s just say… creative problem solving!
I graduated from the University of Colorado Denver with a BFA in Film and Television. During this four-year program my cohort and I worked on a number of films where I soon grew quite fond of working in the sound department. I love how sound can be one of the most intimate elements of film. I find that I can connect so much more to someone and understand their processes better since I am typically one of the only people who are really listening to a person through a microphone. Sound also happens to come with the added perk of getting stand up routines or the occasional concert from a lav’d person across the room.
In my work, I prioritize fostering relationships with people and connecting on subjects that we resonate with beyond our technical skills. I am very passionate about working alongside fellow BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ filmmakers who want further representation on screen as well as behind the scenes.
Let’s create something awesome and meaningful together!
