Available to hire
Hi, I’m Mark Christopher Burrows, an award-winning audio producer with around 30 years of full-time experience in media. My work spans radio presentation, sound recording, live sound mixing and broad audio production, and I’m skilled at taking projects from concept to the finished mix.
I’ve created or helped design sound for numerous radio documentaries and podcasts for the BBC and the independent sector, and some productions have gone on to win awards. I’m proficient with Pro Tools, Adobe Audition, Reaper and Izotope RX/Ozone, and I stay up to date with the latest AI tools and plugins for clean-up and restoration of audio.
