I am an experienced producer and have worked across a series of roles including studio, live, edit, archive and development.
I have been largely responsible for generating ideas for the various shows I have worked on, contributing to scripts, and helping to run and organise studio and location shoots.
In TV production, I have been responsible for leading teams, sourcing talent, and interviewing and briefing guests and talent on different shows - either in person or over the phone.
From submitting detailed briefs and notes, I have excellent writing skills and attention to detail. I have run the presentations for several run throughs for commissioners and execs. I love generating new ideas, and working on others to bring out their full potential.
I am very interested in comedy, and have good contacts with established comedy acts, as well as a great knowledge of the more up and coming comedians around.
I also write comedy in my spare time, and have had sketches performed on stage over the past couple of years, and also was previously a finalist in the BBC New Comedy Awards in sketch writing. I co-wrote, directed and produced an entry into the 48 Hour Film Project which was nominated for one of the competition's awards. Read Less
