I compose images.
I direct sound.

Stories shaped by image, rhythm and sound.

Selected work

Before I learned to direct a frame, I learned to listen to silence.

Music taught me tension, breath and time. Film gave those ideas a body. I approach every project like a composition — looking for the precise moment when image, performance and sound become emotion.

Portrait of Roney Giah

A life led by curiosity.

Roney Giah is a Brazilian film director, musician and composer. A graduate of Musicians Institute in Los Angeles and Audio Engineering at I.A.V. in São Paulo, he moved naturally from records and original scores into film, advertising, animation and visual effects.

In 2014, he founded DOIDDO. Since then, he has directed films and original projects for agencies, broadcasters and global brands — always bringing a musician’s sense of rhythm to the moving image.
