Bobi Wine: The People’s President
Nominated for 1 Oscar – 8 wins & 17 nominations
“Ever since our first feature doc together, ‘My Scientology Movie’ opened at the Vue cinema in Leicester Square, one of the largest and most forbidding cinemas, I’ve pushed to have George mix my projects. George can takes the challenge of working with difficult field recordings to create a sweeping cinematic sound comparable to the biggest blockbusters. His skills were tested with our film ‘Bobi Wine: The People’s President’ (with location sound mostly recorded on a single clip mic) that played in cinemas around the world, and sounded immense”

The Walk
“The Walk blended gritty observational documentary with magical dream-like sequences. As such, the sound design was absolutely essential in making it all fit together. We couldn't have been happier with what George and his team achieved - creating a world which blended those two separate styles in a subtle and beautifully nuanced way. George is an absolute joy to work with.”

"I have had the privilege to work with George on many projects over the years - including TELL ME WHO I AM and BLACK SHEEP - and the collaboration is always one of the highlights of the entire filmmaking process for me. I have always felt immensely privileged to be in such safe and talented hands.
George combines an acute sensitivity for what the sound mix can and should do with a genuine willingness to take creative risks. Despite arguably having mixed more feature documentaries than anyone else in the world (!), I always feel as though George approaches each and every new project with the same excitement and respect, and his unparalleled experience has saved me from myself on many occasions. On TELL ME WHO I AM specifically, George handled the balance of music and effects with huge care given the sensitivities involved in the story, and his use of total silence at several points in the film really felt like we were pushing the boundaries of what a traditional documentary sound mix can offer."

"George is hands down one of the best in the business. Working with him is a creative joy and I always feel like I am in very safe hands. The White Helmets was a challenging mix due to the combination of multiple recording formats and sound qualities. George pulled everything together to create a beautifully textured soundscape that was cinematic and yet remained true to the realities on the ground in Syria and Turkey."

"I watch Trawlermen and how we experience what those guys cope with is completely enhanced by the sound. We’ve experienced the different world you help to create with our Mugabe film. It just makes me feel so lucky that we had you helping our film."
