Secondary Job Title Sound Assistant

Highlights

  • As you will see below, I have worked as the sound operator on a variety of projects, from music festivals and short films, to - more recently - a sports television show involving travelling throughout the United Kingdom providing sound for a large crew in many settings, from tournament venues to professional players’ homes. This project involved working to tight deadlines and providing precise and professional standards throughout.

    Other similar projects that I have worked on include several different short films where the requirement was to record all sound and co-ordinate the sound department, in addition to taking the role as boom operator. Within these film shoots, I have accumulated the skills to work both indoors and outdoors, capturing all sound successfully.
