Description : “Drew worked as part of the sound team on “ The Great Pottery Throwdown”.
He is always punctual and prepared. Drew does not wait around to be given a task, instead asking what needs to be done. The Pottery series is a multi camera shoot with a complex setup of timecode and sound feeds. As the supervisor, dealing with mixes to director and producers, I rely on the sound crew to be checking the technicalities of the shoot and making sure that all microphones are working well.
Drew is fast and fastidious in spotting problems and jumping straight in to rectify. He is also good at dealing directly with production when required and using his initiative.
I would recommend Drew for any project.”

Description : “Drew was a vital part of the team all the way through production. From helping us choose a venue, record a crowdfunder video and then being the focal point of our sound team during filming.
Drew was amazing on set, troubleshooting multiple sound issues at the venue before we started rolling. Throughout the shoot Drew worked so hard but never complained and always kept spirits up. The audio files we received for the offline were full of useful notes and we had lots of options with multiple radio mics and booms being used.
I highly recommend Drew and hope to work with him again in the future.”

From a Post Production perspective, I always look forward to mixing a show that Drew has recorded, as he's always gone the extra mile to get AWESOME field recordings in remote places that have scant library recordings. He communicates with the post department very well, providing copious sound reports, which is very rare and MUCH appreciated. Location sync is always superbly recorded in the most challenging of locations. It is obvious that Drew has an innate passion and talent for sound.

I have worked with Drew on multiple shoots in many different environments around the world.
From a personal point of view - he is great fun and easy company on shoot in quite often stressful situations.
From a professional point of view - he will always have a solution to any problem on shoots. He has a wealth of knowledge not matched by many and he is an asset to any team he works on.
