And so we met Mike Woolley, a man of considerable enthusiasm, broad-based experience and with wonderful people skills – all of which have collectively earned him a great career in sounds - of all kinds! He is busy turning the passions and knowledge of others into great radio and sound bites. What was most impressive was his broad knowledge, his own passion – for communication and facilitating the imagination of others – and his rather dignified refusal to name-drop, especially as he has clearly worked with many very talented and well-known people.
What is emerging from these various workshops is the sheer range and variety of creative possibilities for paid and rewarding work. There is a whole world out there that is ready for Hurtwood talents, blending the creative and the technical, and very much adapting to the rapidly changing interface of communication and entertainment.
