After the success of Isolation over the past year and the well recieved live sound track performance at the Roundhouse earlier in the year Director Luke Seomore, and musicians Michael Garrad and David Stephens have decided to take the film on tour. The UK tour starts on the 14th in Greenwich and I am doing the live mix in the cinema for each night. So if we’re coming to a town near you then do come down and see what Little White Lies said was “One of the best documentaries I have seen in a long while.”

I recently did a shoot for a short film called Siberia by Director Ross McElwain.

The film was shot on location in Peckham, South London in a car park. It was a great location and presented some chalenges for sound recording because of the passing trains!

The Director was Ross McElwain, the Producer was Steph Seabrook, 1st AD was Alex Kendall, the DOP was Annika Summerson.

Here are some pictures that I took on set.

Here is a link to the trailer for the documentary Isolation that I mixed.

Isolation Trailer

Isolation is a documentary film by Luke Seomore and Joseph Bull. The atmospheric documentary centers around the life of Stuart Griffiths an ex-Paratrooper, who has since become a renowned social photographer. He journeys through England encountering ex-soldiers, experiencing the physical and emotional scars of life after the Army.

The film premièred at the Edinburgh film festival in June 2009.
