The ears of Slackjaw. Paul is our resident sound mixer and sound recordist. In between times he does OB sound for Sky Sports on their football and superbike broadcasts. He also performs in the bands Meat for a Dark Day and the mighty Hotsnack.

(You’ll be glad to hear the moustache in this photo was a temporary aberration.)

Eve Wood

Our premiere ‘over a cup of tea’ consultant. Also director/producer on Made in Sheffield and co-producer on Meltdown. She has her own production company, Sheffield Vision, which has a distinct musical bent. They are working on docs about local glam loons Pink Grease and Sheffield’s second wave of popsters in the late 80s/early 90s.

Recently filmed a series of 16 births for a Discovery Channel health series. Lovely.

Janet has negotiated the title of International Sales Executive. Through sheer persistence, she has schmoozed our films in to shops around Europe, Japan and the USA. That’s the easy stuff done, now all she has to do is organise the rest of our set-up.
