Strong shooter and Interviewer with and an eye for great characters and developing stories. I script, shoot with edit in mind, record actuality, sequences and secure gorgeous GVs.
I speak Spanish, French and basic Portuguese, hold a British and an EU member-state passport, a clean driving licence and I'm able to travel at short notice .
I'm looking to expand my broadcast experience focusing in factual entrainment and specialists factual taking advantage of my languages, creative advertising and academic background (PhD, Arts and Humanities).

I've know and worked with Fernando on and off for the last 30 years. He has a sharp creative mind and is a brilliant problem solver. Over the last few years he has been concentrating on making documentaries, whilst at the same time earning a PhD. If you view his docs you can see his creative mind at work. I have no problem recommending to anyone who is on the look out for an innovative film maker/director/ DP.
