Welcome to my website.

I am a professional sound recordist living in London and working in television, film and commercials/corporate.

I have had over ten years experience as a recordist with the BBC Film Unit based at Ealing Studios in West London. I went freelance in 1998 and since then I have done work for a wide variety of TV companies and corporate clients.

 

Other skills: I can ski (and record at the same time) and I read music.
I am also fully trained in the use of DV cameras and have done some second-unit shooting and simple lit interview situations.
  I have been described as “quietly professional” and I like to think of myself as someone who gets the job done with minimum fuss, good humour and sensitivity towards contributors/presenters/actors.
I enjoy travelling and have worked in over 25 countries around the world. In particular, I have worked a lot in France and speak the language reasonably well.
Transport: I have a Renault Espace which will take four/five people plus equipment in air-conditioned comfort. I have often taken it across to Europe on filming assignments and can quote an all-inclusive rate. E-mail me for rate information.

  Credits: My programme credits range from major drama and documentaries to language series and children’s programmes. See my CV page for recent credits.

  Music: Music is a particular interest of mine. I play the piano and sing in a choir called the London Chorus. I have for some years been lucky enough to do a great variety of music recording for both TV and radio. Details are on my CV page.

Foreign Broadcasters; Coming to the UK to shoot?
- I can arrange all your crewing, transport and equipment needs –including airport pick-up - for your UK filming. I have a list of BBC trained Cameramen, Sound Recordists and Electricians and contacts with many equipment hirers.

  Need a Location? I live in West London close to the BBC and have a four floor terraced house in a quiet street which is available for use as a location for interviews, cooking demos. etc. Past users include BBC’s Watchdog and Crimewatch
