Lucky Dip
It seems that a lot of people are becoming interested in this film. Must be something in the air over Wild Swimming. It is being entered for the Virgin Shorts competition and you can watch it here. This film has caused more technical difficulties than the last the same team - of which I am a part - made, even though →

Tracker
Just recovering from the journey into the realms of sleep deprivation without chemical aids but keeping it together enough to handle a complex creative job. I was part of a team 'The Lost Souls" that entered the Sci Fi London 48 Hour Film Challenge. We were given a title, a prop and and an excerpt of dialogue that we had →
Recurring
This morning I'm content, as I have started the beginning of the end of my sound work on a sci- fi horror feature Recurring. I was handed the film just under two years ago. A lot of tidying, rerecording of dialogues, adding foley as a lot of it had to be removed. When the film was shot there was heavy →
