CREW REVIEWS

  1. I’ve had the pleasure of working with Andrew on several feature films in Australia, including Primitive War, a demanding project shot in challenging jungle locations. Throughout production, Andrew consistently demonstrated exceptional skill as a sound professional—delivering crisp, clear audio even in the toughest conditions. His attention to detail ensured that booms never intruded on shots, and his collaborative nature made him a true asset on set.

    Beyond his technical expertise, Andrew is a fantastic team player—professional, easygoing, and dedicated to the craft. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him for any project and look forward to collaborating with him again in the future.

    Feel free to reach out if you’d like further details.

  2. Andrew is a quiet achiever who gets the job done with a smile on his face. After a couple of productions together now, it is always the norm that he is professional, courteous and ready to go, whatever the terrain, weather or challenge we face. I will always have Andrew on set when the opportunity arises.

  3. Andrew Came onto our team for a four day shoot and he was cool as a cucumber the whole time and brought a positive feel to the days. After reviewing his work later it was a pleasure to find clear, well balanced and all round great Sound files and syncs.
