Ok so surely you've read our first ever blog post??
Now I'd like to introduce the team which makes Ont' Sofa tick!
Ben Davis (founder)
@iambendave
Ben likes nearly everything - normally things which involve danger. His favourite sayings could be any of the following: 'whooops' 'yeeessss' 'this thing likes to...' 'i like to...' 'just gonna give this a touch'
Ben has won an innovation award for living in a shop window for a week with me and making our local hospice a whopping £15,000 for charity! Ideas usually stem from Ben and either discarded or nurtured by the rest of us. But where did the idea start... normally Ben!
Ben shoots the sessions on DSLR cameras and edits the videos along with Tom.
Jason Odle (founder)
@Jason_Odle
I can't write much about myself - I don't like it! However I do like nearly everything - more often than not, the things which aren't very dangerous. My passion is for music. I have been playing drums, guitars and keys now for about 16 years. I played in a band called Kasiuss which you ALL need to check out and now play in a couple of blues/funk/function and originals bands.
I record the audio for Ont' Sofa onto my mac using ProTools and I edit the audio afterwards and send it to Ben or Tom to align with the video! I love the process and as we evolve, so will our gear and speed... one day we might have a business ;) fingers crossed!
Tom Bentley (cameras and editing)
@TomRBentley
Tom has been with us from day 1! ...when we didn't have a clue who he was. Luckily though, he's not a bad egg!
Tom has an extreme passion for photography and more recently, video! He brought his DSLR to our first session on the 26th January 2012 and started rolling! (rolling being the word for.. erm.. pressing record!)
Tom is our official photographer and has moved into the office along with Ben and I to produce creative stuff together!
Oli Hooten (webby stuff)
@oliabc4
Oli is our newest recruit! A young-en whose passion is websites/databases/php coding/gibber gabber.. guff etc etc. He now sits in the office too and together we try to make sweet things happen!
Oli likes to go to Uni in September to study something powerful but we don't know what. But good news is he'll still be on the team and our web content should be slick! (if it isn't you can email in and complain, or suggest. preferably the latter).
Joe Stanley (all he wants to do is twitter but we make him do other things similar against his will!)
@JMStanners
All you have to do is follow him on that social network site thing.. and you'll find out! Joe loves to be involved and more than anything.. live the dream. Ask him to lift something for you, he's not interested, but ask him if he wants to lift a beer then there's no stopping him!
Great to have as part of the team as a light-hearted guy, Joe takes care of (you got it) social media, press and promotions!
So there you have it! The Ont' Sofa Team. In a nutshell. We're simple really. Just mates having a good time earning very little - working very hard for you all to enjoy.
We hope you like it as much as we do!
Over and out,
Jason
