As a dynamic and experienced production sound mixer, I
have contributed to films and documentaries for a variety
of international production- and broadcasting companies
across the globe since 1995. (see chapters above for
overview)
Due to a firm grounding in productions that require a high degree of self-sufficiency and resourcefulness I will always approach new challenges with enthusiasm and creative solutions.
I am equally at home working in higher-budget features, quality television drama as well as in groundbreaking low-budget cinema, all projects are always treated with the same dedication, passion and respect.
I speak fluent English,
Dutch and French and own / operate a comprehensive
hard disk recording based film sound kit with time
code facilities for multiple camera shoots
(full equipment list is available on request).
I am a member of AMPS, the Association of Motion Picture Sound.
If you would like some more information about my skills and experience, then please contact me and I'd be delighted to talk to you.

What people have said about my work ...
“Johan's commitment to our film was
total from day one. Both the quality of his work and
his positive attitude a joyful addition to any
crew.”
Sol
Papadopoulos - Producer - Hurricane
Films
“Johan worked with us on ID2 in Hull
last March. For a sound crew it was a difficult film
since the camera continually moved in unexpected
directions and so all actors could be on camera at all
times. Johan was fast, efficient and easy to work
with, turning in excellent sound under these difficult
conditions. The director and I will certainly want him
on the next film"
Sally
Hibbin - Producer - Parallax Independent
Films
"I tend to make very ambitious
films, and my way of shooting is very adventurous.
Usually, this gets in the way of all of our on-set
sound mixers. In the case of ID2, where I worked with
Johan, it was the first time that someone had my back.
Johan is truly a professional, an artist and an
obsessive in the details of his craft. The sound was
not only great, but we were able to achieve our super
complicated shots with all his support. He is
collaborative, easy to work with and his sound is top
of the line quality. What else can a director ask for
in a sound mixer? If you want your film to have great
sound without compromising the visual storytelling, I
advise you to hire Johan, eyes
closed"
Joel
Novoa - Director I.D.2
“Johan was an integral part of my
core team for 'The First Film' and he was especially
useful in France as he was the only one of us who
could speak the language. In other situations in the
UK I found his suggestions re the way I was phrasing
certain sentences very useful. I had asked him to do
this because, as I was the director, producer and the
presenter I sometimes needed guidance. I have already
recommended him to other filmmakers and I know they
have employed him, and will do so again, as will I."
David
Wilkinson - Producer / Director - Guerilla
Films
“Johan has worked on several of my
short film projects. I can't see myself working with
anyone else for sound recording, his work is of an
incredibly high standard. Johan's knowledge,
experience and enthusiasm for this industry is
impressive. I highly recommend Johan's services, you
would be in very trust worthy hands!”
Danny
Lacey - Director - Stadamedia
“Johan is not only a pleasure to
work with, but trustworthy and reliable. He performed
his job as audio recording mixer on our films without
any errors or issues. He's the type of person one
desires to have on their team because he needs little
management and he's a team player. I highly recommend
Johan.”
