About me
I am a journalistically trained Producer/Director and who specialises in factual entertainment, documentary and current affairs programming.Producer/Directing – I am creative at finding content, unravelling stories and constructing narratives. I have an engaging directing style so I can build a rapport with even the most difficult contributors, extracting the best performance and compelling sync. I have scripted shows and produced them in the edit.
Casting - Extensive casting experience, having devised casting strategies and overseen research teams on a wide variety of TV shows and commercials. I have cast key contributors, mentors and experts, including on sensitive topics (sex, race, religion, children).
Self-Shooting – I have experience of filming in challenging circumstances e.g. confined spaces, extreme weather, dry/sensitive subject matter. Other experience includes filming reconstruction of events, underwater go pro footage, night vision cameras, etc.
Development – From initial concept, securing access and investigative research, to producing gripping treatments and taster tapes, I have overseen projects and secured commissions (Unholy War – Channel 4 Dispatches and The Seven Dwarves of Auschwitz - ITV)
Foreign filming – I have set up filming abroad, I speak fluent Spanish and I also have a good level of spoken and written French.
