"I absolutely adore working with Henry! He's gives great direction and is knowledgeable in every aspect of sound engineering! As a voice actor, it's a huge load off to know the audio will be taken care of! If you're in need of an editor or someone to run sound during a remote session, reach out to him. You'll be so glad you did."

"I have worked with Henry on three very different jobs. The first time being an ADR project which was extremely complicated as he was working with VO’s and directors in both the UK and USA. Henry was sending the video feed through to us whilst also recording down the line and editing and syncing voice to mouth on the video!
I was then offered a Direct Response TV project of three adverts that the client wanted to direct down the line with me voicing and editing myself. For cost reasons they felt sending me to a studio would not be affordable on their budget.
That’s when I suggested Henry. Henry was the calm voice who was running the recording (from his studio), feeding through the video with my voice (from my studio) where the client wanted it added (client in two different sites in London), fiddling everything around to make an 8 second sentence fit into a 5 second section of video all whilst the client directed and asked for changes. The client was amazed and delighted with the results Henry could achieve.
For me it was great to just concentrate on my VO delivery. My most recent encounter was three simple internal explainer videos that I needed to get back to my client as soon as possible. Cleaning up audio is not my favourite job so a simple email request and Henry had the audio back to me by the end of that day. The time that Henry saved me on technical matters gave me time to respond to three sample requests and quotes - one of which turned into another job.
No matter the size or complexity of a job Henry saves you time, money and your sanity!!"

"Henry has been a wonderful asset as an engineer to my business. Having him as an engineer during my sessions has given me the opportunity to just have to do one job – concentrate on performance. He is always prepared for my sessions, gathering the information needed prior to my sessions and files are queued up and are ready to go as I need them.
Henry is a true master of providing an environment that is comfortable and I am assured my session will be conducted professionally. His demeanor with my clients is always exceptional and accommodating. They feel great during the session and are always pleased with the organization and presentation of the mastered files.
I have worked with Henry many times and he has brought his A game every single time. I also count on Henry for live session recordings when I am on the road and need to provide work for a client. He is instrumental in helping me prepare my environment to produce the best audio for my clients when I am on the road.
Henry has helped me scale my business and increase my earnings, allowing me to book more sessions and not have to spend time editing audio.
I highly recommend Henry for all your audio engineering needs. If you are looking to scale your business by having an engineer who is a master at his craft, prepared, diligent, professional and an all-around great person then Henry is a connection you should make today."

"Henry is fantastic! My client needed a VO record to video with a very tight turnaround. Henry was able to run the entire session with multiple people on the line, leaving me to get on with the voiceover side of things. At the end of the session he passed on the final polished version (plus alts) AND a video file with music for client reference. They were thrilled, and so am I."

“It’s not very often you get a good mix of relaxed and professional in one person, but Henry fits the bill. From our first interaction two years ago, up until present day, Henry’s communication makes everyone feel at ease - From the voice actors recording, to finding solutions in sound design.
The BBC have always commented on the quality of my radio drama’s, and I know that’s down to Henry’s expertise as a sound engineer. Thank you Henry, & I hope to work with you again for all future audio projects.”

"We worked with Henry in 2022. He facilitated a 1-2-1 session as well as a group webinar. The 1-2-1 session was fantastic. He explained everything clearly and thoroughly. Voicing to picture and trying to make your delivery match the video is a difficult skill to master. Henry offered excellent advice and clear direction. He is not only endlessly patient, but a fun to work with.
The group webinar was a big challenge and Henry did detailed research and advised us on the best way to proceed. During the session he balanced managing the complicated aspects of all the technological aspects with directing and editing smoothly and still with a smile. There was a lot of pressure on Henry during the webinar to ensure all the tech ran smoothly as well as directing and editing and he handled it with the upmost professionalism. If you're considering working with Henry, I would highly recommend him as a director and audio engineer."

"All the way from England, Henry could direct, edit and record our session while I was in Kenya, still with an ability to invite a client from anywhere in the world to join the session and live-direct me on a commercial voiceover or even dubbing for video content.
As an international voice artist, this way of working is a huge discovery and experience. I love how the technology Henry use connects artists from different parts of the world to collaborate on meaningful projects and drive real impact for global businesses and in people's lives.
Henry, thanks again for indulging me in my first virtual studio experience, and may more opportunities open up for us to do some great work together and explore what the future of remote voiceover acting and virtual studio experiences have to offer."
