“Ande was brilliantly diligent on our adaptation of Lord of the Flies. He was meticulous with radio miking and provided a multitude of rainforest wild tracks recorded on location.”
Marc Munden, Director · United Kingdom
“A complicated multi-cam and PTZ setup with celebrity talent in a very challenging location, and Ande always found a way to make things work, at one point routing audio across the setup using the fibre optic line the PTZ team had laid underwater for camera. He brings a calm, solutions-focused energy to set that makes a huge difference when things get hectic.”
Josh Patil, Executive Producer · Baliprod Films, Indonesia
“Working with Ande on Inside Crime Scene was an absolute pleasure. Passion, professionalism and positivity. Ande rocks!”
Emma Neubronner, Executive Producer · Singapore
