Audio post-production
Working on the web, or in the studio...
Work can be completed partly or entirely via the internet with files delivered by email or via FTP, and regular demos of my ongoing work sent at appropriate stages of the job (as an MP3, or a Quicktime movie).
Alternatively all are very welcome to attend work in the studio, which is at home in Brighton. It’s spacious and comfortable with good sound and video monitoring. Together with my wife Jennifer we guarantee a warm welcome and can provide most facilities required whilst working in the studio. There’s also a spare computer and printer and deskspace to work at if needed and a wi-fi signal for laptops, etc
Based near the Preston Park area of Brighton, there is plenty of parking available on the road, and it’s in walking distance of Brighton station (London Victoria to Brighton is only a 49 minute journey).

Technical stuff...
The Pro Tools suite is made up of a G5 Powermac,  Pro Tools 7 & DV Toolkit, a Mackie control surface, Yamaha MX3P monitor speakers, and various other hardware including firewire drives, ADVC converter,  DAT recorder, PPM meters, etc.
There’s a large sound fx library, which can instantly be searched and auditioned. Foley fx recording is also no problem, nor is recording atmos and fx on location with Schoeps stereo mics.
There are a wide range of broadcast standard plug-ins by Waves, Digidesign, etc which make for creative sound design work. And excellent compressor/limiter and EQ plug-ins to level out volume and make the mix punchy and bright... they also help to ensure the sound mix adheres to broadcast delivery requirements.
For video monitoring, full quality digital video is streamed to a widescreen monitor. It makes for a good place to view material, and helps to mix sound accurately.
 
Voiceover...
The voiceover booth is quiet and acoustically treated. There is a Rode NT1000 studio condenser mic and pop-shield which sounds excellent for VO, and good talkback and headphone monitoring facilities. There’s also a  second video monitor in there for recording in sync to picture.

Title
You can see my audio post-production credits at the base of this page which include work as a dubbing mixer, sound editor, and sound designer since training at NFTS in the early 90’s. For many of the productions I have worked on I have been both the sound recordist and sound editor / dubbing mixer, which has given me the opportunity to see projects through from shoot to sound dub.
The Pro Tools suite is well equipped for dealing with a range of audio post-production work, from a simple tidying up and sweetening of the editor’s existing sound to more extensive sound design work or dialogue replacement.
Files can be easily imported from your Avid or Final Cut Pro edit, and the finished sound delivered back to you completely ready for broadcast. Or work can be just as easily shared with your online facility if required... as I have done with Frontline Television, Loudhailer, Brighton TV, Suite, and The Farm on broadcast projects for Granada TV, the Discovery Channel and others.
Please take a look at the details  below which include information about the studio & voiceover booth and a full credits list, and please contact me to find out more or for a quote.
