Bal Ganesh / Tree House Tales Sound Design
I did some sound design work as well as some additional music editing for the animated children’s TV series Bal Ganesh and Tree House Tales. Both are out now on Netflix!
DAU Online
As perviously mentioned, I worked as a foley mixer and sound editor on the Russian DAU project at Phenomen UK over the past few years. After a successful world premiere at Berlinale earlier this year, some of the films are now available to view online (with more to be released later).
DAU. Natasha & DAU. Degeneratsiya Reviews
As mentioned on my previous post, I worked on the Russian DAU project as an in-house Foley Mixer and Sound Editor. Two of the feature films produced from the unique arts project received a world premiere at the Berlin Film Festival last month.
DAU. Natasha was rewarded 5 stars from the Guardian’s Peter Bradshaw, and the film also got a “Critic’s Pick” B+ rating from IndieWire’s Eric Kohn.
DAU. Degeneratsiya also received high critical acclaim, with the film scoring an overall 2nd place rating with the critics out of all of the Berlinale 2020 entries.
There were also favourable reviews of both films by The New York Times’ A.J. Goldman, and MUBI’s Ela Bittencourt.
More info on future DAU releases can be viewed on the project’s official website.
DAU Berlinale Premiere
Between 2016 to 2019 I worked on the Russian DAU project as an in-house Foley Mixer and Sound Editor at Phenomen Films in London. After a Paris release event last year, two of the film projects Dau. Natashsa and Dau. Degeneratsia have been selected for a world premiere at the Berlin film festival.

Altsasu
Premiered at the Edinburgh International Film Festival, Altsasu is a documentary short that I worked on as a Sound Designer and Composer.
“In the Basque town of Altsasu, the beds of seven young men lie empty. As the town celebrates its annual festival, Altsasu follows Igone as she copes with the imprisonment of her son Jokin and six others, convicted in a case which has been widely condemned as a miscarriage of justice.”
Director: Eoin Wilson. Producer: Irune Gurtubai & Ben Sharrock.
De Beers
I composed music for this De Beers short set in the Basque Country, which is now up on Instagram
“Inspired by the Dewdrop design, De Beers has partnered with artisans in the Basque Country to create shimmering hand blown glass spheres for the new April windows.”
