Summit Post was founded in 2004 by Motion Picture Academy member and industry veteran Derek Vanderhorst. With over two decades of experience, Derek has worked on over 130 feature films and episodic television, games and new media including in-house roles at Fox, Paramount, Universal, and Warner Brothers. In his various roles, Derek saw the need to evolve the sound engineering industry to better support the emerging trends and technology in filmmaking. He founded Summit Post to offer more flexible and customized options for directors and producers seeking deeper collaboration and more freedom in the post sound process.

Derek’s passion around the complexity of sound began in 1975 when he learned to handmake make a Rabab (a Persian lute-like musical instrument) with his grandfather in Aurora Colorado. The exotic sound of the Rabab grew into a fascination with the unusual noises made by old broken cars, which propelled him on a quest to explore sound design as a profession, landing him in Hollywood in 1991
