    uniE613 Mixing & Mastering Engineer - Lydia The Bard
    Lydia The Bard Mixing and Mastering services for the popular singer/songwriter _Lydia The Bard_. In this series of projects, I worked with the team to deliver high-quality masters for release across all streaming platforms and her beloved YouTube channel - which you can view here: www.youtube.com/@LydiatheBard Lydia The Bard is a singer/songwriter well established in the industry. She first gained recognition as a cover artist on YouTube, captivating millions of listeners with her powerful reimaginings of popular songs. Her signature style—transforming beloved Disney characters into villains—quickly set her apart, showcasing her love for subverting familiar stories and exploring darker, less forgiving narratives. Working with Lidya was a joy, communication was always firendly and professional and the composers I worked alongside in the team were excellent. With the team being remote, I would liase with Lydia and the composers to retrieve the project stems and vocal takes to begin my process. As a part of my service, I would offer _revisions_ across both the mixing and mastering stages - I believe feedback is one of the most important elements to a successful project, and
    uniE613 STAY! (Film)
    STAY! (2024) A short film directed by Macaulay Jones. In this project I worked as the Sound Designer and Composer, working from early conception through to final surround sound mix, master and delivery. This _horror_ film tells the story of our runaway protagonist who stumbles upon a popcorn trail in the forest. Her curiosity gets the better of her when she discovers the trail leads to an abandonned cinema in the middle of nowhere. She must survive the horrors that await her in the depths of the silver screen. Working with Macaulay Jones was a fantastic experience, I had the pleasure of collaborating with the entire team on-set as I also was the _Sound Recordist_ for the project. Integrating myself into the team was paramount to the creative process as I was able to truly understand the vision of the director and deliver his vision for the soundtrack and soundscape. My previous experience in electronic music production and sound design allowed me to design _bespoke instruments_ and textures that depicted the emotion required for each scene, setting this project apart from everything else. I firmly believe that each project has a voice of it's own and should be
