THE TEAM
WE ARE A UNIT OF CREATIVE & TECHNICAL ARTISTS WHO ENJOY COLLABORATING WITH OUR CLIENTS ON ALL THINGS SOUND
Rodney Lowe

Les Molnar
Director / Producer
Working in production since the age of 23, Les first honed his skills as an engineer and switched to producing after a number of years when he realised he can’t sit still in a studio for eight hours a day. Working at studios such as Flint Webster and Good Audio Sense,
Les has won countless awards for his casting and engineering abilities. In his spare time, Les likes riding his bike, quiet candlelit dinners, a few reds and moonlight walks on the beach…alone.
Ben Lowe
Sound Engineer
Ben is representing the younger generation at Production Alley and after 5 years of heavy duty training as a sound engineer, he is now involved in all things pre-production. Music searches, sound effects layup and dialogue editing are a major part of his day, but he also spends time in the studio mixing and recording with his Dad (Rodney Lowe)
Ben lives and breathes audio and his enthusiasm and ever-evolving experience behind the desk will see his career in audio continue to flourish.
As Ben puts it “just maybe the old fella might be able to teach me something useful” - we look forward to seeing you in studio so you can be the judge of that.
Sally McManus
Producer
Sally worked with Rodney and Les at Good Audio Sense for over 10 years as an audio engineer. After having three children she returned to the industry to focus on production.
Sally has a wealth of knowledge and a love of casting. She is now working with the team of PA engineers and is available to get the best results for your next project.
