AuroraCast #11 - Al Eales (Producer) & Paul Cheung (Director)

Film Directors & Producer
Written By Michael W. Bell

Episode 11 of AuroraCast is one of our favourites so far! Firstly because It's the first time we had two guests on the podcast, and secondly because we had the unique opportunity to discuss the process of filmmaking while learning more about the careers of film producer Al Eales and film director Paul Cheung.

Al Eales (Mindless Intelligence) brings a ton of experience to the table having worked in the film industry as a producer, scriptwriter and production services manager. -

Paul Cheung is the Director/CEO of FightGravityFilms. He has worked on an impressive number of projects over the years including narrative, documentary, advertisement, music videos, personal projects and more.

Thanks again for joining us guys, Mike is very much looking forward to catching up over a few pints very soon... Cheers!

Welcome

Michael W. Bell is an award-winning film music composer, ambient sound designer, sound engineer, record producer, and the CEO/Founder of Aurora Eclipse Productions Ltd. He has composed music and designed sound for a number of films, trailers, TV shows, documentaries, animations, commercials, companies, and more. In addition to his music work, he has produced and released records for a number of independent artists.

As a lifelong enthusiast in immersive sound and multidimensional art forms, Michael is currently interested to learn what potential we now have as musicians and producers to utilise Dolby Atmos from our personal computers, without the need for expensive monitoring systems and large spaces.

When not composing or producing music, Mike enjoys lecturing at the University of Northampton leading students through industry and production modules. He also creates videos and communicates to his peers via his Discord, YouTube, and Patreon channels. He can also be found hosting AuroraCast, his long-format podcast.
