Recently worked as Producer/Director for coverage of the Premier League Kicks Cup at St George’s Park for @PDI Media

The brief was to help build a film combining the competition itself with the wider impact Premier League Kicks has on the young people involved.

Working closely with cam-ops @RachaelTurntin (Martin) and Chris Noonan, I produced participant and coach interviews and helped coordinate the coverage so contributors had matching action, reactions and natural moments to support their stories in the edit.

Throughout a fast-moving day, we kept checking what the edit might still need, adapting our coverage as fixtures and priorities changed and making sure the final team had a varied mix of clubs, personalities and regional voices to work with.

Some of the strongest contributions focused on confidence, community, free access to football and opportunity.

A really enjoyable day combining live sport, contributor-led storytelling, close collaboration with the crew and quick production decisions on location.

Thanks to Jon Sides and everyone at PDI Media for bringing me in.

I’m currently available for bookings from the end of August across sport, live events and access-led content, so please feel free to get in touch about any upcoming opportunities.
