Jeandre has been instrumental in the success of multiple shoots across my BBC1 'Mammals' landmark show. He's a proactive team player with boundless enthusiasm and skill to deliver across a variety of camera channels, and in often challenging and opportunity-limited situations. His eye is excellent and his technical knowledge and patience to problem solve is a real asset in remote locations.
Fantastic eye and attitude. Wonderful rushes and very proactive!
