Read MoreI am a versatile, talented Senior Producer on the look out for a fabulous project to get my teeth into. I am well-versed in all aspects of programme making from live broadcasts and documentaries to short-form multi-platform content. In addition to traditional broadcast I also have vast experience working on brand new series, on start-ups and working on remote productions. I have an excellent track record as a Series Producer running teams on complex international projects, as an Edit Producer overseeing multiple edits simultaneously, as a Live Producer working in a studio and/or live gallery environment and as a Producer/Director directing single or multi-camera shoots. I have worked remotely on large scale projects and I am extremely comfortable in all aspects of remote production, including managing multiple edits simultaneously remotely.I have Series Produced a variety of programmes for all the terrestrial broadcasters (BBC, ITV, C4, C5) as well as numerous pay to view channels. I very much enjoy the team dynamic, supporting shooting teams on location in all environments, post production staff in the edit and the hard working production management team ensuring things run as smoothly as possible.
I have created content for a number of high profile corporate clients and understand the specific challenges this type of work brings.I have a wealth of experience in documentary style and behind the scenes programming and relish constructing entertaining storylines aided by my excellent script writing skills. I find it easy to write clearly, concisely and quickly under pressure and enjoy high-pressure environments. I love the way a story develops, usually in unexpected ways, and weaving a compelling narrative as the material evolves. Human stories are always the heart and soul of the project and athletes bring the extra drama of failure and success and joy and heartbreak in equal measure.I am skilled in creating compelling storylines from a wide variety of sources and I take pride in compensating for gaps in available material in a creative manner. I am an experienced interviewer and particularly enjoy dealing with sensitive subject matter and inexperienced or reluctant contributors. I particularly enjoy dealing with less well-known sports and athletes - more a modern pentathlon/beach volleyball/rowing kind of storyteller than a global football one!I have vast experience working on fast turnaround projects which have included presenter-led and studio based programming and I am happy writing top quality scripts in a very short space of time.I am used to working to tight deadlines and tight budgets.I am able to transfer the skills I have learned in each of the genres I have worked in, resulting in a very flexible and knowledgeable approach to a wide variety of projects.I have worked on a number of archive based projects and am happy sourcing, viewing and editing archive material. I am experienced with first episodes and the commissioning of graphics, titles and composers.I welcome challenges and relish working as part of a team. I am skilled at motivating people and getting the best from them and will be an asset to any production team.
