Many projects I have been lucky enough to work on have won awards including a B.A.F.T.A. and, the Irish equivalent, an I.F.T.A..I am currently freelancing. I have a full ProTools studio available 24/7 with sound booth at "sensible" rates for post production, plus Cubase Pro for music writing and production.I am also happy to work on any type of DAW and software combination - Mac, PC, Nuendo, Logic, Fairlight Xynergi, Audiofile etc. - and any make of mixing console.I have tremendous energy and enthusiasm for this wonderful business, and am happy to work anywhere, any time, on any type of project, doing any of the sound recording and audio post disciplines.

As well as recording, dubbing and mixing every kind of production in my own studio, as well as in facilities around London, I am currently working on the PR launch of a unique, new, audio software called MASHTRAXX.

I was contracted by Locky Butler, owner/M.D. of Slate Post Production in Dublin, as Sound Supervisor and Senior Dubbing Mixer on RTE's flagship drama "The Clinic".There were 10 x one hour episodes in the 2006 season series and a further 10 x one-hour episodes in 2007. The show was awarded an I.F.T.A. (Irish Film & Television Award - the Irish equivalent of BAFTA) in 2007.I thoroughly enjoyed all the work on both seasons, which included fitting foley, ADR, spot effects, music editing, dialogue pre-mixing and final mixing, then creating the various separates for the deliverables. I fell in love wth Dublin, and the people there were great to work with.

China Blue was an independent Soho Post Production Sound and Video Facility. We specialised in broadcast television and several productions I worked on won awards, including "10 Days to D-Day" which won a B.A.F.T.A. I carried out a variety of work on dramas, documentaries, comedy shows, sports programs, films, and foreign language corporate videos. (For examples see my website).For those interested in such things "China Blue" got its name because we were in a building in Wedgwood Mews, the location of Josiah Wedgwood's London showroom for his famous pottery, and not just because of the lyric ". . .reflect in Vincent's eyes of China Blue" from Don Maclean's song "Vincent".

We composed, arranged, produced and recorded music for television. This included commercials such as "Zovirax Cold Sore Cream", "Unichem Chemists" and "Ideal Home". Also television title music for shows like "Stand Up America" and "Spellbound", and incidental music for game shows, satellite and radio stations. We also created a library of music for general usage.

As a Senior Sound Supervisor I was, for the first few years, "Joint Head of Sound" with my friend and colleague Wouter van Herwerden until he left to go to the States, at which time I held that postion on my own. I was invited to join the Board of Complete as a Director. When I joined the company it had fewer than 20 employees; by the time I left in 1995 it had over 80.Complete was originally a broadcast facility editing sound and pictures for all kinds of television programmes, music videos and film trailers. Gradually the emphasis shifted away from broadcast towards commercials. As a result, over the years, I have been involved in the making of every conceivable kind advert, music and light entertainment show, documentary, film, tv, radio and video for broadcast and sale.

During my time at Olympic, I had one of the industry's real legends Chief Engineer Keith Grant as my mentor. I recorded a vast range of different types of music and artists including the original "Evita" and "Cats" albums. "Don't Cry for Me Argentina" was a Number One Hit. I also recorded and mixed two versions of "Memory" - one by Elaine Paige and one by Barbra Streisand - both of which reached the Top 10. I even recorded an instrumental version with Gary Moore playing the melody as only he could! The USA Cast Album of "Evita", which I mixed, won a Grammy. While there I worked with such diverse artists as The Man Band, Hawkwind, The London Symphony Orchestra, Alan Price, Hank Marvin, Barbra Streisand, Roy Wood, Gallagher and Lyle, Focus, Lemmy, The London Gospel Choir, Paul Jones, Uli Roth (Scorpions) and Eric Faulkner (Bay City Rollers).Studio One at Olympic used to be one of the greatest recording rooms anywhere. Artists like The Beatles, the Rolling Stones, Perry Como, The Eagles, Barbra Streisand, Jimi Hendrix, Lena Horne, The Who, Joan Armatrading, Eric Clapton and Rod Stewart all recorded there. I loved my time at Olympic. We worked hard but above all it was fun!
