I worked as dialogue editor for all eight epsodes. It can be very challenging to clean up sound for a period drama set in the countryside- there is nowhere to hide when filtering out planes/ cars. The New South Wales  cicadas and birds were often busy. The trailer is below, and the show is currently available via SBS on Demand.

I completed the sound design and mix for this short drama back in 2021 (lots of good dialogue editing and sound design by Leah Mckeown + Foley by Baylon Fonseca). It has had a good festival run picking up a lot of gongs along the way including this prize at the South Australia Screen Awards. If you are Australia based you can click here for link to view it on SBS on demand.

“This is going straight to the pool room”(If the reference means nothing, click here for a link to a clip from ‘The Castle’ ). Photo just in from my UK press office AKA my mum’s kitchen table. ‘Who Killed The KLF’ covers the stranger than fiction story of the UK band. Following on from a theatrical release It is currently  available to stream on SBS in Australia and More 4 in the UK. It’ll make you laugh, dance/tap your feet then either think “OK, so that was what they thought they were thinking, but WHAT THE HELL WERE THEY THINKING?” or it may just inspire you to do something bold and wreckless..(Maybe don’t do the bold and wreckless thing they did though, you’ll very probably regret it!)

I was supervising foley editor so no tuxedo or night out in the bright lights. All the same, I am happy to be working on content people like. You can view information on Savage Rivers award nominations visible using this IMDB link. Nb I posted more info on Savage River back in February 2023 when it was AACTA nominated for best sound in TV.

I was supervising foley editor for this crime thriller set in small town Australia. If you are in Australia you can use this link to stream the programme via the ABC If not, I’ve attached the trailer and a clip that the ABC shared below.

I did the sound design and mix for this short scripted film, based on real events. The synopsis is “On the cusp of his initiation, a young Aboriginal boy, Mungo, has a chance encounter with James Ashton and his travelling circus in 1853” I have just found out that it won this prize among others on a good festival run- A relief as the film was finalised as COVID was starting to get going so I didn’t know what was going to happen  . It was shot near  Tamworth (New South Wales) there was a lot of scope to immerse the audience in the sound of the Australian bush and then contrast this with circus sounds,. More information on the film and the prizes it has picked up is available at https://www.imdb.com/title/tt12319304/awards/?ref_=tt_awd

 I did the dialogue edit on this many moons ago with Mix by Vincent Watts. It’s great that something I worked on has been listed amongst so many films I love! Screen Grabs of the relevant section below or use this link to go to the original article in The Guardian (UK)

I worked on the foley for this show. All shot in Queensland, it made me want to get out of the studio and on a plane. I’ve been an Australian citizen -on paper- for a year but now I’ve covered a season in Bryan Brown’s blundstone boots I feel a fraction closer to being ‘dinky di’.
