About
Pete began his career in audio with renowned Australian Production company, Crawford Productions in the late 70's.
His role started as music editor for various television series including The Sullivans, The Flying Doctors, Cop Shop and All the Rivers Run, broadened to sound editing, recording and mixing on many other series.
With these developed skills, he then expanded as freelance, working on many projects which included animation and short-form series for The Australian Children's Television Foundation, Good Audio Sense, Music and Effects, Labsonics and Anthony Lucas Productions. This wide experience then led him to feature film work in editing, foley recording and artistry, sound design and mixing on Robbery Under Arms, Lover Boy, Romper Stomper, Little Tornadoes and Van Diemen's Land as well as other productions.
Along with Pete's expertise in these areas, he ventured into music recording and producing, along with live mixing for bands, duos and solo artists. This also included music pre-recordings on live theatre productions for NuWorks, Fab Nobs Theatre and Wesley College.
