About
I'm Jack — a freelance Sound Engineer and AV Technician based in Birmingham. I specialise in live sound, broadcast, and corporate AV across festivals, conferences, and televised productions.
I've delivered projects for Vodafone, BBC Question Time, TNT Sports, Premier League football broadcasts and Iconic Auctioneers, working alongside production companies including Gravity Media, AT Comms, Aztec, Immersive AV, NEP Group, and Cloudbass.
My main focus is sound — FOH, monitors, broadcast, and corporate AV — but I've also developed a strong interest in AV networking: Dante routing, VLANs, and AV over IP, which helps me troubleshoot and improve reliability on complex productions.
