For as long as I remember I have had a huge passion for film and television and have always been fascinated by the technical, as well as purely entertaining, sides of TV and film. I also extremely enjoy creating my own film ideas. I have a strong work ethic and I have graduate with a BA Honours degree in Television & Film Production and I consider further experience within the Film and Television industry as absolutely invaluable. I can receive and give direction well, and have held a variety of jobs within the retail industry which has provided me with experience of a wide range of responsibilities from working with others to taking responsibility for specific areas of my work place, and I am no stranger to long hours. I am always up for a challenge and will always try to better my working environment even without direction. I hope to one day become a script writer and have my own work produced and shown on the big screen, and will work and do all that I can to achieve this goal.

I have gained vast amounts of technical and creative skills within the film and TV industry-

·         Worked on more than 10 films predominantly working as the camera operator and writer/producer

·         Worked with video camera equipment ranging from 1 chip Sanyo hand held cameras to HD JVC and Sony HD z7’s

·         A confident and competent at tracking, deep focus and steady handed camera work.

·         Excellent knowledge and work with various sound equipment e.g. shotgun and radio microphones and SQN mixers and boom poles

·         Worked and dealt with sound issues and in environments ranging from a busy and rough sea front to a quiet professional sound studio

·         Experience with setting up and using tracking and dolly systems and different make and styles of tri-pods.

·         An extensive knowledge of Final Cut Pro in which I have used to create a mixture of documentaries and short films

·         Creatively I have written, directed and produced a variety of films, VT’S and a live TV show in which I acted as the floor manager

·         With no prior actor interaction I successfully auditioned over 40 actors to take part in a well received short drama film

·         I have written, directed and produced over 10 films, and have gained a good knowledge of script writing structure and have been able to broaden my creative mind through script writing.

·         Minor acting experience I feel gives me a better understanding of TV and film as I have experience both in front and behind the camera
