Hi, I’m Jason Ford. I’ve built my career around audio production, from recording sessions to shaping the final soundscape of podcasts, radio, and long-form documentaries. I’ve produced and edited content for ABC Radio National and other outlets, delivering episodes on time, publishing to hosting platforms, and crafting thoughtful show notes. I’m passionate about creating compelling listening experiences and collaborating with teams to elevate content. I’m skilled at trimming material to fit time without compromising interview quality, and I’m comfortable taking direction to meet a client’s vision. I’ve worked across multiple platforms and formats (Zoom, in-studio, remote feeds) and use tools like Adobe Audition and Netia to deliver broadcast-ready productions. I thrive under tight deadlines and enjoy building strong working relationships with guests and colleagues alike.
