We aim for solutions

When you're taking on the elements, external factors and noise such as weather, planes, animals and especially people can make it difficult to to achieve the most natural sound possible. Ambient noise is rarely avoidable, but at Creative Kicks we know how important it is to approach things with a level head and the right attitude to achieve the best outcome possible. We are available for consultation from creation of your concept to execution, to lend a hand with advice on shooting locations and what will and won't work.

The right tools for the job

We use high quality equipment, using preferred brands such as Sennheiser, Sony, Sound Devices, Lectrosonics and Rycote, which means we keep our standards high because why not strive for the best in all situations. When recording, we ALWAYS ensure there are dual redundant recordings in place as a back up to avoid those "uh-oh" moments we all dread and you can be sure we can tailor a solution specific to your needs. 

​Most importantly of all we know the importance of passion, dedication and a happy disposition on set because life is supposed to be enjoyable!
