About me

I’m a versatile motion picture sound practitioner based in Newcastle upon Tyne, UK. I have 10+ years experience in a multitude of formats including; features, shorts, docs, TV, commerical, corporate, animation, podcasts, and voiceover - with credits on BBC, Virgin Media, Adidas, Nike, and Barbour. 

I offer a full-service package, including; location sound recording, sound design, dialogue & sound effects editing, foley, and mixing & mastering.

I’ve dipped my toes in most departments over the years, including; writing/directing, camera & lighting, and art direction, giving me the ability to communicate the language and understand the needs of each department.

TESTIMONIALS

“Richard was great to work with on our feature film ‘LORE’. He made, what I thought was going to be a complicated process, really simple and his work was outstanding. He brought things to the sound design and sound mix that I hadn’t thought of. I am really looking forward to working with him in the near future. ”
— Adam Bouabda, Sea & Sky Pictures
“I had the pleasure of working with Richard on a short film recently. He has a very professional attitude towards his work, while also being a friendly face on set. He is a calming influence and has a good overall understanding of the various departments. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Richard and look forward to working with him again soon.”
— Paul Stainthorpe, Lone Pine Pictures
“The level of detail Rich works into his sound is incredible. From clothing foley, footsteps, and prop handling, he will get your film sounding great. After Rich has worked on your film, you will understand why movies on the big screen sound so good.”
— Robert Carr, RGR Films
“Richard is always a delight to work with, elevating every project he’s been a part of. His attitude on set and ability to make contributors & actors feel relaxed throughout filming is of the highest professional standards I’ve seen.”
— Samantha Casto, S Castro Creations
