Sound Designer
Full Member / Council Member
Louise Burton is an Emmy Award-winning Sound and Music Editor with over 7 years of
experience in the film industry.
Having studied Sound Design at the NFTS from 2016 to 2018, she landed her first job in
the industry as the Sound Assistant on the Academy Award-winning film Bohemian
Rhapsody. Since then, she has worked her way up through the sound editorial ranks,
contributing to films such as Saltburn, Moonage Daydream, and The Quiet Girl. More
recently, she has stepped up to Supervising Dialogue and ADR Editor, working on the
highly acclaimed film Kneecap, for which she was nominated for a BIFA.
In addition to her work in film, Louise has also worked on several HETV shows as a
Supervising Dialogue and ADR Editor, using creative techniques within the dialogue to
aid the storytelling. Her work on Janicza Bravo’s The Listeners is a prime example of
this. Other notable projects include The Devil’s Hour, Douglas Is Cancelled, and Line of
Duty.
Louise has had an excellent start to her career in what can be a challenging and
male-dominated field. She is passionate about increasing diversity within the industry,
doing outreach in schools and colleges, and returning to the NFTS as a visiting tutor.
Louise is also a proud member of BAFTA, AMPS, and MPSE
