Profile
Kevin has twenty-three years experience in producing professional broadcast audio, but maintains a fresh and focused attitude to his work. He is skilled in studio operations as an assistant, in multi-mic and multi-camera environments and has also mixed on current affairs and reality programmes. He has worked on OBs as diverse as church services, rugby, and LE.
"I love being involved in Arts and Science based programmes, but I also enjoy working on people centred programmes and I like to play my part in putting contributors at ease, to whatever degree appropriate to the production."
Kevin is also a Fisher Boom operator and has been the sound recordist on a number of 16 and 35 mm drama shorts.
