With a strong background in both Shoot Production and Post-Production, alongside creative development, client handling, third party vendor management, budgeting, scheduling and agency structures I am an exerienced Advertising Production professional seeking new opportunities.As a Production Coordinator / Manager at VCCP’s internal production arm Kin, I was responsible for all aspects of shoot production, from initial briefings and director pitching, straight through to full scale production and into post-production and delivery. I have experience of working on multiple projects at one time, with a range of scales and complexities to each job. Having worked at a production company that sits within a creative agency, I have an in-depth understanding of both sides of the production process which I believe is essential to making sure all stakeholders are aligned throughout the production process. I have excellent experience working alongside accounts teams and creatives, whilst also representing the director and production company throughout different stages of approval, ensuring all parties are keeping the client’s wishes at the forefront of their minds, staying within budget and maintaining the agreed timing plan.I have in-depth experience in budgeting, scheduling and keeping large scale projects on track, making sure all departments and crew are fulfilling key milestones and presenting to client at the appropriate times, as well as staying within budget. I've delivered projects to numerous platforms and mediums, including OOH, TVC broadcast, cinema, social and digital, and have specialist knowledge of working with new technologies like VR and Augmented Reality from my time at world-leading post-production house Framestore. I regularly work alongside the TV admin department within VCCP, agreeing playout dates, liaising with Clearcast on scripts and potential legal issues, and preparing clocks on finished commercials ready for transmission.I have key experience pitching on and winning projects from clients, and enjoy working with both creative and technical teams to interpret and develop briefs. I regularly work with freelance artists, creatives, directors and DOPs, and have a black book of industry contacts at post-production facilities including offline, online, grading and sound houses, where I regularly run sessions independently.I have good experience of working with cast and talent, negotiating contracts and usage fees, alongside campaign roll-outs and multi-territory localisation. Furthermore, I have experience drafting and submitting contracts and SOW documentation, managing vendor and outsourcing relationships, authorising POs and external payments, reconciling jobs, creating behind the scenes films and reels, and using project management tools such as Google docs, Smartsheets, Excel, the Adobe Creative Suite and Keynote.I have a passion for the advertising industry and really enjoy seeing a project through from initial concept right down to the final deliveries. I'm a confident team player, with strong people skills and the ability to think on my feet. I’m comfortable working independently, as well as collaborating as a member of a wider team, and believe my flexibility and varied experience would prove an asset across a range of projects and campaigns. Outside of work, I produce my own short films acting as live action producer, and also completed the industry recognised APA Masterclass, whilst regularly keeping up to date with industry developments and best practices.
