NILE POPCHOCK
Chief Audio Engineer
Nile Popchock is a highly experienced and knowledgeable audio technician in virtually all aspects of live and planned production. Nile is best known for his works with recording artists, feature films, television episodic, and production sound.
Nile began his audio career as a musician in the Seattle, Washington area. Realizing his love for audio, Nile attended university as an Audio Technology major in Spokane, Washington. After graduating in 2011, Nile worked as a front of house audio engineer, mixing and providing live sound reinforcement for a large event center in Spokane, Washington. Hearing great things about a budding filmmaking community in Phoenix, Arizona, Nile took a chance and relocated with aspirations of entering the film and television industry.
Once in Phoenix, Nile began introducing himself to local production companies, filmmakers, and production crew members. It didn’t take long for Nile to grab the attention of Summitstar Films executive team. Within a few short years, Nile found himself building a solid audio portfolio as a production sound mixer for Independent Films, Documentaries, Commercials, Corporate Videos, and other content.
In 2015 Nile purchased his first recording studio. Nile’s skills were immediately embraced and he began recording local artists, quickly establishing himself as the “go to” audio engineer. Nile quickly found himself producing albums for top artists and becoming the most sought out television and film audio engineer in the Phoenix area. During this time, Nile was also becoming Summitstar’s first choice for production and post production audio services.
Nile quickly outgrew his studio and just a few short years later, Nile commissioned space in a much larger, well known studio. During this time Nile’s audio services, and reputation, were leading the Phoenix metro area. Nile found himself completing post production audio projects for major studios, television networks, grammy award winning recording artists, and much more. Nile had realized his love for motion picture production audio and vocalized his desire to join the Summitstar team.
In September of 2022, with the completion of Summitstar Studios in sight, Nile officially joined forces with Summitstar Studios as its Chief Audio Engineer. Nile is currently established within Summitstar Studio’s main editing suite where he says he enjoys working within a fun, challenging, and rewarding environment. Nile currently works side by side Summitstar executives to establish and maintain the highest quality audio services Arizona has to offer. With all of the audio tools, experience, and resources required to be able to exceed a productions audio needs, Nile is looking forward to this next chapter in his career. Nile says looks forward to Summitstar’s growth within the industry, and to his own personal growth.
