Production & Recording Essentials with Fiona Cruickshank, Hannah V and Chloe Kraemer moderated by Christian Wright.

Saturday 5 March from 3:45 - 4:45 PM GMT

Recording engineer, producer and film music editor Fiona Cruickshank, producer and songwriter Hannah V and engineer/producer Chloe Kraemer give an overview of their careers to date and how they got to where they are today, including tips for other young female producers and engineers, before the session is opened up for a Q&A. Moderated by Abbey Road mastering engineer Christian Wright.

 
As skilled in mixing Oli Julian’s score for Sex Education as she is recording the orchestral elements of Paul Weller’s number one album On Sunset, or engineering the Royal Opera House orchestra performing Prokofiev for Balletboyz, Fiona’s portfolio shows a breadth of creative approaches transcending film, music, and performance arts. Head here for the complete list of her works.

In 2021 Fiona recorded and mixed Keaton Henson’s score for British drama and festival hit, Supernova, a continuation of her collaboration with Henson, whose much-anticipated album, Six Lethargies, she produced, recorded, and mixed.

Fiona was recently enlisted by PSN in their 2020 list of pioneering women in audio. Previously, in 2019, she hosted a mixing workshop for Spitfire Audio’s Tech Dissect, an event designed to celebrate women in music and music production.

Having worked at AIR Studios for over a decade, recording engineer, producer, and film music editor Fiona Cruickshank is among the latest to join the AIR Management roster.
 
A pioneer in a new generation of entrepreneurial female producer/songwriters, Hannah V has worked with some of the world’s most in-demand major label artists including Stormzy, JP Cooper, and TOBi.

After producing and co-writing tracks for JP Cooper’s Top 10 album Raised Under Grey Skies (Island Records) in 2017, Hannah scored her first Gold-certified album and now continues to regularly produce tracks for JP Cooper - including his 2020 Too Close - Live Acoustic EP, recorded at Abbey Road Studios. In December 2020, Raised Under Grey Skies surpassed 1 million units sold globally, as well as over 1.5 billion streams.

Other writing and production credits include five-time GRAMMY-winning Lalah Hathaway, Yola, Misha B, Shystie and MOBO nominated artist Andreya Triana. Hannah was appointed to the Ivors Academy Songwriting Committee in 2020, as well as their Equality, Diversity and Inclusion group.

Alongside her undeniable skills as a songwriter and producer Hannah has balanced a stunning performance career. Her performances included playing stadiums and arena tours with Rihanna, Jessie J, Eminem, Lalah Hathaway, Jason Derulo, Taio Cruz and Anastasia.
 
Chloe is an engineer/producer from London who started her career at Paul Epworth’s Church Studios. During her time there she assisted & engineered sessions for Christine and the Queens, FKA Twigs, Rina Sawayama and many more.

Since then Chloe has been dividing her time between engineering and production. Recent clients include Rex Orange County, The Japanese House and bbsway.
 
Christian joined Abbey Road Studios at the age of 19. Starting off in the copy rooms, he graduated to the role of mastering engineer and has since gone on to master award-winning No.1 albums as well as soundtracks to No.1 films from both sides of the Atlantic.

Some of the biggest and respected names in music have had their albums mastered by Christian, including Ed Sheeran, Franz Ferdinand, Blur, Soft Hair, Kae Tempest, Bears Den, Keane, and Ben Frost. His skills in soundtrack production have been employed on the Oscar winning Gravity composed by Steven Price, two Harry Potter films and The Master - composed by Radiohead's Jonny Greenwood.

Using a combination of analogue gear with advanced digital software, Christian has mastered tracks by some of the world's best known artists including LCD Soundsystem, Radiohead, Mumford and Sons, Coldplay, Ben Howard, Tuneyards, Ariel Pink, Bryan Ferry, You Me At Six, Swedish House Mafia, Laura Marling and Elvis Presley.
