"We couldn't be happier with the way the scoring has turned out.  It's been a fun, creative and inspiring process, working with a lovely team of people who have really brought a richness and another level to the film that we didn't foresee.  We're very grateful for that."

2019 Relinquish (composer)

​

“Working with Richard has been an excellent experience. His creativity and professionalism helped shape the film even before we started filming.  Ideas and demos for certain scenes were created in incredibly small gaps of time with great results. His commitment and constant communication allowed me to bounce off ideas with him to create the best possible score for the project. The sound quality and mixing was superb, allowing the scores rich orchestration and synths give the project a wider range of emotional tones that helped connect with the viewers during certain scenes.  Richard's workflow, on-time deliveries and great execution make him a great choice for any film score, and I definitely recommend working with him.”

"Richard is an absolute pleasure to work with. He was quick to respond and answered all my questions. He put in a great amount of time and effort to get something that was close to what I envisioned.  He was also easy to communicate with which makes the entire collaboration so much more rewarding.  Prompt delivery, prompt response, and a willingness to do multiple revisions.  If you want high quality work you have found the right guy."

2017 Cope (score) 

​

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt7123932/fullcredits?ref_=ttco_sa_1

​

"With limited ideas of films and clips sent to Richard to work with he did a wonderful job of creating suitable pieces of music that captured the scenes intent and tone perfectly. They allowed the film to be elevated to that next level to showcase the emotion that James, the main character was experiencing at that time. The technical execution and mastering of the files themselves made for very easy work in the cutting room. This is all down to Richard's professionalism and constant communication with myself, wanting to relay his progress and discuss anything music related. This aspect made working with him an absolute pleasure.

 

Although we had worked out the length of the project and deadlines, other post-production crew had delayed some progress and with terms already laid out I felt that Richard went above the call of duty to make sure that what he was going to be delivering was up to the standard he wanted. Once the style and piece had been composed, finding the perfect queues for his music to accompany the image after was another excellent triumph of what is a well-rounded score for Cope. I would be grateful to have the opportunity to work with Richard again, I learned a lot from him that will surely further the betterment of my own film career. I couldn't thank him enough for his work and will without consideration, pass him name onto any production team that is in need of a composer."

2017 Eternity Corp (score, sound design, sound editing/mixing)

​

"The sound design and score complimented the film very well. Sound was key to making the movie work as the visuals were quite basic.  Richard managed to bring the android to life with his sound effects and also added mystery and emotion with his score.  Audio clean-up was great. Every actor can be heard clearly in the film. Also the soundtrack doesn't dominate the piece and the sound level is balanced well against the dialogue.  Richard was very professional and even managed to complete the sound design and score ahead of schedule. The whole crew worked through email and Skype and were able to communicate clearly and effectively.  I'm hoping he will work with me on my next project. I would definitely recommend him to other filmmakers."

Jimmy Nsubuga - Director, Dysutopia Films

2015 Perception (score)

"Richard is a determined collaborator and was an inspiration to work with. He felt like my Clint Mansell to his Darren Aronofsky as I would always tell him.  He was very spruce and up and ready to go and always taking notes .  His score was fantastic. Working with Richard was the first time I had ever collaborated with a sound artist and it was a memorable experience. I look forward to hearing his future endeavours."
