Rock Pool

Rock Pool is the first project by Soup Audiovisual, a collective comprised of Director/Editor Dan McKay, Producer/DoP Adam Radage and Sound Designer/Musician Tom Bosher.

Dan is a multidisciplinary artist and academic who is currently undergoing a PhD by practice in Film at University of Exeter. He has previously graduated from University of Exeter with a BA in Film and Television studies and Falmouth University with an MA in Film and Television Production. Dan’s core interests involve ecology, slow cinema and the soundscape. His latest project, Rock Pool, applies this creative lens to the Cornish landscape.

Adam has a background in biological sciences, graduating with a Genetics BSc from University College London. He then worked in wildlife conservation abroad, working for companies such as Panthera and Operation Wallacea, before using his acquired field work skills as an ecological consultant in the UK. Since completing his MA in Film and Television from Falmouth University, Adam has combined his love for nature with cinematography using his scientific understanding to approach and film wildlife in new and novel ways.

Tom is a sound designer who is fascinated by the emotional power of sound in cinematic storytelling. After studying English Literature at Exeter, he discovered sound design as a powerful non-verbal language capable of eliciting visceral emotional responses and unpacking complex ideas. This led him to pursue a Master’s degree in Sound Design at the National Film and Television School (NFTS), where he continues to refine his craft.
