I have over a decade of experience working as a self-shooting producer and director of factual, live and corporate projects for the BBC, Channel 4 and online. I’m confident handling everything from single camera shoots to leading large broadcast teams and directing high profile talent. I’ve developed and scripted flagship TV shows and produced both long form programmes and short, fast turnaround VTs. I self-shoot and edit on FCP and have access to much of my own kit. Showreel available on request.
