Testimonials
Jeni Lee – Producer
‘I recently came to Noise Kingdom to have the sound mixed and mastered on a short docudrama, She’s Not Alone. The film explores intersections between gender-based violence, new technologies and society. Given the subject material, it was brilliant to work with a young female post-sound editor.
Much of the implied content relied on emotive sound design and Ella had both the sensitivity and expertise we required. Like many productions, we had a tight turnaround and I really appreciated Ella’s professional approach and attention to detail. I am really happy with the end result and would love to collaborate with her again.
Cliff’s communication is friendly and approachable- He happily managed our last-minute booking and convoluted invoice requirements.
Very reasonably priced and professional results!”
