WHAT PEOPLE SAY
SIMON SPENCER
Executive Producer
Paul is a talented and original sound designer, who has produced exciting soundscapes for me on a variety of international kids TV programmes.
Each series creates its’ own unique world, for which Paul is a master at creating innovative sounds and effects. Paul embodies a perfect mix of creative talent – and efficiency – along with the ability to produce new and inventive sound designs specifically tailored to whatever challenges he may be presented.
Paul has helped me out across several long running series – Dani's House, Sadie J, Dani's Castle. I am a nightmare in that I know what I don't want and sometimes what I want – but Paul patiently listens and we work out what I actually need. I love his musical background which you hear from dialogue, music, all the way to a rich bed of Foley. A great ear for detail and far too patient for my change of ideas and whims. Brilliant!
ALEX RICHARDSON
Director
FFM came on board our feature at the last minute, and swiftly delivered top-notch foley for several key scenes. Our sound designer was particularly impressed, and still comments on how much FFM's work has added to the production.
I would not hesitate to recommend FFM. Great communication, quick delivery and excellent work.
