BIO

My name Is Javi Lopez, I'm a PSC Sound recordist / 1 AS based in Edinburgh with the ability to work as local hire in Madrid (Spain) as well.
After finishing a Bachelors Degree (Hons) in Recording Arts at SAE Institute Madrid in 2009, I moved to London. In 2011 I graduated with a Mdes in Sound for the Moving Image at the Glasgow School of Art. 

I have over 10 years experience in Factual TV, Obs. documentaries, corporate videos & drama. During my professional career I've worked in a wide range of countries and different environments: from the concrete jungle of Edinburgh to high altitude Andes in Peru, extreme heat in Cuba or humidity in Nigeria. Being bilingual in Spanish and English has been very useful as I can often help with on the spot translations where necessary.

I have worked for most of the biggest broadcast channels (BBC, Ch.4, ABC, Nat Geo, Discovery, History, etc.). I’m a team player who's always willing to go the extra mile and help the team - at the end of the day we’re all about achieving the same goal.
