Having developed a strong interest in sound for picture Neil has become very involved in sound recording in Cork. He has worked on various corporate projects and short films by Cork based film makers. He has also recorded sound for TG4 and for Granada Television. During the summer of 2009 Neil recorded sound for ‘The Dublin Writer’s Room’, an hour long video installation.
