About me
I have recently completed my first year in the industry working for a small production company called Nylon Films. Whilst doing this I have also worked on many freelance projects for other companies. I am a graduate of London Metropolitan University where I studied Digital Media, The course itself explored many different facets of the digital media including, documentary and video production as well as artistic film production, web design, graphic design and the study of social media and web 2.0.It was studying my degree that really cemented my mind into what I want to do with my life. That is, video production. I have always made videos since a young age weather it be stop motion with my Lego, or in teen years filming me and my friends skateboarding.
As you can see from my CV I have a wide Varity of work experience working for quite a few different production companies, again in entry-level roles. Some of these where unpaid and offered on a work experience basis, this gave me a chance to get my foot in the door and since then I have moved on to paid, runner, production assistant and other production roles.
As I was working in smaller production companies I have been given quite a lot of responsibility quite early on, witch allowed me to get my hands on the camera straight away and start shooting. Being camera operator or 2nd op on many different shoots. It has been a steep learning curve and I am well aware that there is a lot more to learn, this is what I hope to develop in the future, working with different directors, and Producers to further build my knowledge base both out on location shoots and in a studio environment.
I have a good knowledge of editing software’s such as Final cut and Premier Pro as well as knowledge of compositing programs such as After effects. I love to try new things within these programs and am constantly looking for new tutorials to go through and little projects for me to do in my spare time.
