Testimonials

Working with Thomas on The Game was an incredible experience. The film presented a huge number of challenges from a sound perspective, particularly dialogue recorded in extremely noisy exterior locations, and he did an outstanding job cleaning and restoring it to a level I genuinely didn’t think was possible.
Beyond the technical work, Tom completely transformed the film creatively. He built a detailed world of sound for every location, bringing the environments to life while always making sure the sound design served the tone and story. His creative use of risers, booms and subtle sound design throughout added an entirely new layer to the film and elevated key moments far beyond what was originally on the page.
He took a film with a significant number of sound problems and turned it into an incredibly polished and technically proficient final product. I couldn’t be happier with the work he did and would recommend him without hesitation.
Blaize Mott - Director of The Game
Working with Thomas on Restless Mind was a crucial part of bringing the film’s emotion to life. His expertise and his collaborative nature helped elevate the final sound design and overall impact of the story.
Callum Smith - Director of Restless Minds
Thomas was diligent, collaborative and worked well in understanding the vision of subjective sound in the film. He would go above and beyond in bringing ideas to the table to heighten the tone of the piece.
Marcus Thomas - Lead Tutor (NFTS Film Academy)
Tom led the team in the craft well and conducted himself at all times in an extremely professional way. He has genuine talent, is intelligent, committed and clearly passionate about filmmaking and I have no hesitation in recommending him most highly.
