I am an audio visual artist, composer and sound designer based in Bournemouth, UK. I have nearly 20 years of experience working on creative audio visual projects from immersive museum installations to documentary film; from brand experiences events to VR and AR apps; and from online content to live cinema performances.
I believe fervently in the power of sound and music to elevate our experiences. With a deep understanding of both audio and visual production, I am uniquely positioned to help create maximum impact with sound and music for audio visual productions.
I have a strong passion for spatial audio and its ability to enhance immersive experiences. I look to expand my work beyond traditional stereo formats where ever possible and have delivered work in 5.1, 7.1, 7.1.2, Dolby Atmos, Ambisonic, as well as bespoke installations including one with a 19.2.4 channel count.
I am an accomplished and flexible composer. I am particularly interested in combining acoustic instruments and field recordings with electronic synths and drum machines, creating new textures and details.
My education in communication design has given me strong theoretical discipline, and I ensure all my work is underpinned by conceptual ideas. Following graduating from university with a design degree, I worked primarily on the visual aspects of content creation, such as animation, editing, camera and design with sound design and music as a side role. However 10 years ago I shifted my core focus onto the audio elements of projects, whilst still doing a few animation and motion graphics projects to keep things interesting.
I am a long-time collaborator with the Light Surgeons and continue to develop new work with them. I feel very lucky to have worked on such a fantastic variety of projects with them which you can see at lightsurgeons.com.
