    uniE608 Unrecord Sound Design
    A notable piece of work I produced as part of my course was the Unrecord trailer. For this project our brief was to take a game trailer or short and design the sound in its entirety.

    paper Tom Favell EP - Strangers, At Best

    A recording project for a singer songwriter named Tom Favell. He came to me with an EP he wanted recording and mixed. Over four sessions we recorded four songs, recording drums, electric and acoustic guitar, bass, and vocals. This project allowed me to further my understanding of the recording process and mixing process in addition to making me more comfortable liaising with clients. The tracks were given to the client for mastering, Catching Trails was recorded and mixed prior to this project by a different engineer.
