About me

Broadcast Showreel - https://youtu.be/AI4LScZYAYU

I started my career in the media industry in 2013 as a location assistant on a three part ITV 2 Documentary titled 'Freshers'. This project involved us following a group of young students in their first three weeks of university life.
After a few years of runner, researcher and camera assistant roles on a number of different projects I realised my interests lay in camera operating.
I had my first shooting role in 2015 on a series of presenter led immersive documentaries for BBC 3 titled 'Tyger Takes On...' which involved us travelling the country exploring the world of sex and gender. This quickly led on to a second camera role for the second series of 'Educating Joey Essex'.
Most of the television projects I have been involved with in my career thus far have been forms of observational documentary where I have learnt to hone my skills in shooting actuality, extracting good sync from contributors along with learning the art of creating a good visual sequence to tell a story.
I had my first directing role as a DV Director on a Channel 5 doc titled 'Inside the Sex Trade' in late 2017. I enjoy directing and this is an avenue i'd like to pursue in the future.
A real career highlight so far was an 8 month project with the Discovery Channel following a variety of entrepreneurial contributors from all over the world. We filmed with scientists at NASA in Washington, USA, with Italian engineers in Ghana, Africa, as well as filming all over Europe.

I work primarily with Sony FS7 or Canon C300 kits but can access other cameras if necessary. All kits come with standard shooting equipment plus a wide array of lenses, audio equipment and lighting.
