”I have had the rare privilege of working with Chris for four years at Expo 2020 and he has been an incredibly loyal and dedicated colleague. Chris has such a huge diverse skill across multiple creative , film, audio and digital platforms and software processes. He has been instrumental in delivering mutilple and layered changing background sound to Expo as well as the sonic branding, digtal screen content and of course the brilliant production of the inspiring and hopeful Expo theme tune. Chris has a artistic creative mindset twinned with the latest technology knowledge and the nohow to practically and logically implement. The exact opposite of a creative nightmare Chris is a patient, perceptive and receptive individual and very confident and capable of managing with grace in the most changing and complex environments. As either a team member or leader, Chris earns my highest recommendation.

”Working in often challenging field conditions, I breathe easier knowing that Chris is in charge of our work in the studio. His remarkable technical skills have salvaged success from disaster too many times for me to count. Come what may, his vision for a broadcast and his dedication to our work represent the difference between mere success, and that wonderful feat of producing a programme that we are all extremely proud to have contributed to. Chris Atkins is the best producer I have worked with in 20 years. Period.

”Chris is one of those people that you just need to have on your team. He’s creative, professional, responsive, 100% reliable, and honorable. We worked together on the ‘Song for Expo 2020’ project and I was blown over by his attention to detail, good humour, and ability to get the job done whilst considering everyone’s point of view. Highly recommended!
