    SET is a fantastically professional and convenient studio. Richard is so accommodating and I can always get in last minute if needs be. Stress free, relaxed and great looking tapes.

    Richard opened my eyes to a whole new side of my acting I didn't know I could tap into, especially in a tape environment, which can feel so different from being in the room. I've done countless auditions on tape and now I wish I'd done them all with Richard. His guidance and brilliant knowledge in script work made me feel super comfortable. Plus, not having to stress about editing and transferring afterwards is a game changer. I can't recommend him highly enough.

    Working with Richard really opened up my taping experience and made it feel creative again. Supportive and full of useful insights. Clear and stress free. Highly recommended.

    I’ve done a few tapes with South East Tapes now and it’s brilliant. A wonderful environment where you don’t feel like you’re auditioning, you feel like you’re working. It takes the pressure off the technical set-up and allows you to fully focus on the job at hand. Richard is exceptionally collaborative and helps get the best performance out of you. Professional, quality tapes, thank you! Will be back soon.
