Graduating with a distinction from the MSc Sound Design program at Edinburgh University, Phil has now set-up his own freelance sound design company ‘eeL_Audio’, which offers accomplished sound design and audio post production throughout a wide variety of digital audio media. He thinks outside of the box and has his own unique style that has mostly been expressed through film drama and documentary (currently 21 credits) and art installation work. Numerous sonic art installation commissions completed include, a lengthy 2-piece soundscape designed for Glasgow International Festival of Visual Arts 2010 and 3 major projects for the ‘85A Collective’ and ‘Lowsalt Gallery’ based in Glasgow.
His dissertation project titled ‘Virtual 3-Dimensional Sound as Art – Presentation, Interaction and Immersion’ involved in-depth understanding of both the FMOD and Max/MSP software tools to design a complex project that investigated unchartered artistic territory which he hopes to build upon in the future.
He has ambition to continue to develop his unique style through a broader range of film work and to utilize his non-linear experience to explore sound design for video games.
