Kate McCourt
BA (Hons) Film and Moving Image Production
My name is Kate McCourt a.k.a. DeadKatte Sound Design. I enrolled in the university’s Film and Moving Image Production course with the initial intention of becoming a writer/director, however, after I began my studies I found I greatly enjoyed the role of sound, from communicating with the director in pre-production and discussing how sound can be used to enhance the story, to being the recordist on set, to making foley and editing in post-production. It was a career path I could really see myself in. In my final year, I lead the design of three films; a psychological horror, an intimate drama, and a personal documentary, as well as assisting several of my peers with the sound on their films. You can find my work on SoundCloud and YouTube, where you’ll also see my capabilities as a film/video editor, and for updates on what else I may be working on you can also find me on Instagram.
