Post Production Sound

for Film & Television

Dialogue Editing

Precision editing for clear punchy dialogue allowing space for sound design and music elements. Our aim is to keep ADR counts low and to focus on the original performance. Yes we have all the plugins you'd expect!

Creative sound design for exciting immersive experiences. Everything is driven by the director's vision and storytelling aims. Good sound design is like music and can greatly enhance a film.

Expert mixing (or pre-mixing for other facilities) for polished and exciting audio. And once again, we have all the plugins you'd expect! (though good mixing is about so much more).

Free Range Audio was started back in 2000 in London by Pete Gates (me) and Craig Butters. Our goal was to offer high quality film and TV post production sound services, working across many London mix-stages. When Craig headed back to Australia I teamed up with other talented sound designers to keep things going strong. I bring some level of experience to the table - 20 years at the BBC and another 20+ in Soho. I'm known for being a calm problem solver so the team can stay focused on the fun, creative side of post-production sound. Over the years, I've been lucky enough to work on some amazing projects with some incredible directors, along the way picking up a 2 RTS nominations, 2 Emmy nominations, 2 BAFTA nominations, 2 BAFTA wins and 1 Turnip.
