Fellowship Citation

The Council of the Association of Motion Picture Sound is pleased to award Fellowship of the Association to Brian Simmons.

A Founder Member of AMPS when it was formed in 1986, his credits as a Feature and TV Production Mixer range from WOMEN IN LOVE back in 1969, through BRAVEHEART in 1995 and more recently, THE MERCHANT OF VENICE.

Brian has served on the Council for a good many years and is currently our Vice Chairman. He has a calm and effective way of dealing with problems with considered judgement, and has always taken a very active role in helping to run the Association; in particular organising meetings and the AGM’s, and has offered a tenacious input to the successful setting-up and completion of our charity project for Ovingdean Hall School.

For his services to the British motion picture sound industry over the past many years and his enthusiasm for ensuring the continued progress of the Association, he is hereby awarded Fellowship of the Association of Motion Picture Sound.
