Jay Whittaker(II)
- Sound Department

Jay Whittaker is a Sound Designer, SFX Editor and Re-recording Mixer from Liverpool, UK. In the audio and music industry for many years, he had started out - like many - as a guitarist at the age of 7, joining different bands through his teens, and on to recording and assisting Grammy award winning and platinum selling mix engineers.
Once the band had gone their separate ways, his passion for sound in film & TV led him into working for local Indie film directors and on large scale corporate video projects as a Sound Designer and Re-Recording Mixer.
Soon after joining The Association of Motion Picture Sound (AMPS), he earned a place on the AMPS mentoring scheme, which has led to him working on some acclaimed HETV, factual and feature projects. These include -
Time Series 2 - Jimmy McGovern and Helen Black's critically acclaimed BBC prison drama, starring Jodie Whittaker (Dr Who) and Bella Ramsey (The Last of Us). Granite Harbour - BBC police drama set in Aberdeen, starring Romario Simpson and Dawn Steal. Everything And The Universe - Feature drama, written and Directed by Sarah Scarlett Downing.
