Sound RecordisT - Music playback OP - London

Hello, I'm Simon. I'm a freelance location Sound Recordist and Music Playback Op covering commercials, TV, film and music videos. I'm based in London, UK, but very happy to travel.

 

The experience to get you great sound

I'm a full member of the IPS and AMPS with over 25 years experience working in different sound disciplines. Whatever the sound requirements on your shoot, I can help. 

​​​

The right equipment to do the job properly

​​

I take pride in owning and maintaining the highest quality kit for both sound recording and playing back music. A range of mics, recorders and speakers are always ready to go in the van. I specialise in Phonak in ears for pop artists requiring 'silent on set' music playback.

​​

Collaboration on set saves you time and money in post

Working collaboratively with other departments is really important to solve any potential sound issues on location - all of which saves you time and money in post-production. 

Giving you confidence in location sound​​

Directors, producers and agency members can all have confidence listening to what's being recorded on set as I have excellent quality headsets and speakers for clients.

Peace of mind on location

I have full Public Liability Insurance and carry back up of all of my equipment. Sound won't stop your shoot if we're up a mountain or in deepest south London. 

Please get in touch to check my availability or pencil me for a job
