Production sound · a slice of thousands of productions since 2008

Four of these went on to win Emmys. I recorded sound on The Comeback: 2004 Boston Red Sox for Netflix and the Barnicle Brothers (2025 Sports Emmy, Outstanding Documentary Series), ESPN’s SportsCenter Special: The Harbaugh Brothers (2025 Sports Emmy, Outstanding Edited Special), Not So Fast, My Friend: A Lee Corso Special for ESPN College GameDay (2026 Sports Emmy, Outstanding Edited Sports Special) and the full run of Protect Our Paradise (Suncoast Regional Emmy, 2024), the ESPN and Florida pieces alongside three-time Emmy-winning DP Pete Gill. The awards belong to the whole crew, but I was on the boom and in the bag for those days.

Common questions

What has Joe Giannotti recorded sound for?

Thousands of broadcast productions since 2008. The named slice includes 30 for 30 (ESPN), The Daily Show, Dark Side of the Ring, The Synanon Fix (HBO), The Saint of Second Chances (Netflix) and everything listed above, plus commercial work for brands from Publix to GQ. And that's the slice that got written down. Most broadcast days don't come with a credit roll.

How can I verify a Florida sound mixer's credits?

Ask which networks and shows they've recorded for recently, ask for a producer reference or two, and look at their gear list. Databases only capture a slice of a working broadcast mixer's calendar. Most ENG and network days never get a credit roll. Every title named on this page comes from an actual booking.
