Andrew Wilson

I received a complete grounding at the BBC in Radio and TV as well as Film. I specialised in film sound post-production. Working initially with traditional film/sep-mag, I later pioneered the use of the AMS Audiofile at BBC Bristol for both mixing and as a track-laying/sound-design tool.

Working as a Dubbing Mixer / Sound Designer at Films of Bristol, I used NED's Synclavier/PostPro system. At Films @ 59, I used Synclavier as well as Audiofile, 16/35 mm Mag, Sadie, ProTools and most recently Pyramix, usually in conjunction with AMS Neve's DFC desk.

I have mixed in all formats from analogue mono through Dolby Surround to 5.1, 6.1 and IMAX, as well as unique configurations for custom-built sound installations.

I have been responsible for the design and specification of mixing, sound editing and transfer rooms. I have played a major role in the training of sound assistants and junior mixers, as well as having a regular involvement in training courses run by external educational institutions. I have given presentations at workshops and debates for students, at film-festivals, and to the Institute of Broadcast Sound. I have served as a member of the judging panel for the BAFTA Television Craft Awards and the Royal Television Society Awards (sound categories).
