Welcome to my website.
I love what I do, and in this website you will find my background experience, work credits from recent years, (whether they be in film, television or social media), a list of supplied equipment, and a gallery of cool photos representing the excitement and passion I feel for this work.
Background.
My passion for sound recording began in 1993 while training at the AES (Audio Engineering School) in Sydney. I began working freelance immediately joining a cameraman/friend with whom I later travelled to Germany. There, based in Munich, I really honed my skills, and over 5 years became senior sound recordist for local production company – Alegro Film. One highlight was travelling through Germany for the documentary “Tanz mit dem Tod”. I mainly did documentary and news, but also many multi-camera events and forums. In 2004 I returned home basing myself first in Queenstown, and then Auckland.
The last six years in Auckland I have focussed more on television drama, lifestyle shows and film. I now have a comprehensive range of equipment to add to my skills, providing for either off the shoulder sound, or large cart based productions.
