Formação
My Voice Over experience started in 1984 as a local radio station host, voicing and producing numerous radio shows.

Since then, I have expanded to video, both voice over and dubbing, as well as ADR in some films.

Promoções
I'm a musician in a family of musicians (wife is a professional pianist), both with experience in composing. While working for Universal Pictures (L.A.), I specialised in post-production for film, such as ADR, foreign language dubbing, Sound editing and re recording. Fully equipped as a recording studio, I am able to provide services such as music/soundtracks, original or re versioning. My recording experience dates back to 1980 as a teenager learning at the biggest recording studios in Portugal and giving some assistance in the form of Port wine to Keith Richards. Since then, I've done many courses and workshops, such as Film post production at SAE Institute in Hollywood CA, SSL (Solid State Logic), Yamaha among others.
Having worked in the film industry for 9 years in Los Angeles, expanded my experience to filmmaking as well, as a producer, writer, actor and post production. Having produced over 100 video ads between 2011 and 2017, many featured on national TV stations from Australia to USA, one worldwide on the National Geographic Channel.
