About me
My motivation is to improve my craft each and every day and I have a bit of fun along the way. My experience is predominantly in documentaries, factual entertainment magazines and corporate promotional content.
As a Producer I find success through knowing my clients' needs, paving the way with great ideas and logistical execution, getting the right talent and crew onboard and making 100% sure the messaging and delivery meet expectations.
As a Director I showcase leadership skills, creative vision, I understand and execute the craft with precision and I can physically and mentally handle the demands of the job. My creativity, organisational skills and technical knowledge help ensure productions are managed with efficiency and flair.
As a Camera Operator I strive to be outstanding! And that's why I work day-in day-out to master my craft. I'll go the extra mile and provide endless suggestions on how to improve shots and enhance concepts and sequences. I pride myself on developing instant rapport with contributors and crew.
As an Editor I've a knack for creativity, but also an in-depth knowledge of the capabilities of editing, graphics and animation software. I know what CAN be done and, therefore, I ensure problem-solving's effortless. I also excel in managing the emotional energy of clients and stakeholders by keeping composed under pressure, respecting egos and experience and creating a pleasant environment in the edit suite.
