lecturer // sound recordist // folk musician // producer
I
trained at the Northern School of Film and Television in Leeds, studying
sound for film drama. In those days it was Nagra 1/4" portable
tape machines and Steenbeck editors. Now I use a digital flash recorder
and tracklay on a Mac Powerbook running ProTools, while watching a Quicktime
movie!
I teach sound design to media production students at Salford University in Greater Manchester but to keep my hand in I do work with Pablo Productions, making short black comedies, and with One Day Films who make full length features of a more serious nature. I also assist people with troubleshooting audio post issues, mostly doing ADR (dialogue replacement) sessions and foley sound effects work.
