  About me

  I am fascinated by the technical aspect of production within the camera, sound and lighting departments. I am able to quickly absorb new information and put it to practical use on various types of video shoots. At the moment, I would like to mainly focus on developing my skills as a camera operator/assistant.

  I possess experience of operating, rigging and setting up a variety of both film and TV cameras, including industry leading RED & ARRI as well as Phantom HD Gold & VEO slow motion cameras. As part of a camera rental company, I'm been able to work with these cameras, sound, lighting and grip equipment on a daily basis.

  I have shot and assisted during many types of shoots: music videos, documentaries, short films, events, commercials, corporate and promotional videos for brands like Aldi, Toys R Us, BBC, Aston Villa, Free Radio.

  As a camera operator, I like to experiment to find new exciting ways of shooting if appropriate. I am an advocate of camera movement including hand held, the use of sliders, dollys, jibs and stabilisers. While being creative, I am always conscious of maintaining the right shot composition and framing.

  I believe that hard work is the key to mastering any discipline and talent is only a small part of the success, which is why I take pride in working hard and my high organisational skills.

  Joanna is very tech savvy! She knows her way around most cameras and can tell you exactly why you should use a particular one for a particular shoot. A great camera assistant.
