"As a filmmaker I have been fortunate to work with some of the greatest sound designers on the planet, so when I tell you that Folklore are among the best at what they do, I know what I’m talking about. They deliver professional perfection while being an absolute pleasure to work with - that is why I want them on every film I make. Folklore are truly gods of audio creation.’
Kiah Roache-Turner, Director, Wyrmwood: Apocalypse
"Thom and his team are a pleasure to work with in every way. They are not only technically proficient but are also highly creative, always bringing a raft of design ideas to the film and TV sound space that we've collaborated on."
