Graphic Design

Here's a few examples of my designs, there's some logos, event posters, album covers, illustrations, photo restorations, and probably a few other things too.

Sound Recording

I specialise in recording classical, jazz and acoustic music. You can listen to an eclectic portfolio of recordings here, if you want. It's still here if you don't.

Video

I'm also a videographer (with my own equipment). I mostly film music videos, adverts, theatre productions, workshops and interviews, as well as editing video, sound design and creating motion graphics.

SOUND RECORDING

Are you a contrabassoonist dreaming of recording a solo album, but weary of recording engineers not even knowing what your instrument is? Probably not, because that’s a wildly specific demographic and an incredibly niche grievance, but I’ll support your dream all the same. My background in orchestral, musical theatre and jazz performance means I know the genres inside out, and I know how to capture your instrument or voice perfectly and make it sparkle even more with some studio magic.

I don’t just do music though. I’ve also recorded plenty of voice overs and film dialogue, as well as rigging and mixing live sound for concerts, plays and functions. Click here for a (hopefully delicious) taste of my portfolio to see if I’d be suitable for whatever you had in mind.

If you’re an actor and/or singer who needs a better quality showreel to get you more auditions, get in touch and I can help you with recording a vocal or acting reel. My rates are also very competitive; starving artists have got to look out for each other right?

If you’re a musician or band who wants an album, a showreel, a music video, or just some attention, I can help with that too – hello@samgee.co.uk, don’t be a stranger.

design

I think it’s fair to say I also design things sometimes, I even designed this website look! I’ve also been a musician since I could reach the piano keys, and performed in orchestras, musical theatre, solo recitals, function bands, and probably some others, so I understand the importance of good advertising to get people going to your gigs (‘bums on seats’, I think is what the cool kids say). Do you want bums on seats? I hope so. And I’ll do my best to get them for you. Whether you’re a little old freelancer, a small business (or even a big business), or a lovely musician, get in touch because I’d love to design you something eye-catching and unique to spread your brand and land a stunning first impression.

I design posters, logos, websites, concert programmes, games, album covers, and anything else you might want to be honest. If you like my portfolio, please get in touch (hello@samgee.co.uk, did I say that already?) and we can discuss what you’re after.

Oo was that a ping? Must be your email coming through. Great, talk soon!
