Patrick Collins: A Rising Star in Audio Post Production

We’re thrilled to celebrate the success of Patrick Collins, the creative force behind Incus Studio. Patrick joined us as an Audio Post-Production Essentials (APE) student in late 2023 and, just six months after completing the course, built his own thriving studio that’s already making waves in the industry. His journey is a great example of what can happen when you embrace opportunities to learn, grow, and apply your passion. For many, including Patrick, this journey begins with the essential training and dedication.

During his time with us, Patrick honed his skills and quickly excelled in both the creative and technical aspects of audio post-production. Specialising in original music composition, sound design, and audio post-production, he blends his classical music training with his qualifications as an audio engineer - skills that many in the audio industry build upon when transitioning from a musical background. This combination provides a solid foundation for a successful career in audio, a path that’s accessible to anyone with the right mindset and commitment.

Patrick has already contributed to projects like Oisin Kearney’s BFI-funded short "Slay and Prepare" and Simone Smith’s "The Möbius Trip", which has earned accolades at festivals including Edinburgh International Film Festival and Holly Shorts Film Festival.

We are incredibly excited about Patrick’s achievements, and watching him grow Incus Studios into a creative hub has been rewarding. We look forward to seeing where his dedication takes him next.

If you’re ready to build a successful career in audio, join our next APE course starting on 6th February 2025. Your journey in audio post-production could start here too.
