On the first international shoot for a long-running true crime series here in the US, we faced a lot of unchartered territory and high expectations from our network, Investigation Discovery. But when George Cathro entered the picture as our local Producer-Director in Scotland, I knew we were in good hands. Working closely with my team in New York, George offered very thorough and valuable input when it came to setting up the production, recommending a top-notch local crew and navigating cultural differences, both logistically and in terms of content. George had an immediate grasp of both our format and the story, and I felt completely confident handing the shoot to him to direct, despite having never met him in person. Working with a victim of crime in a very harrowing story, George was extremely sensitive and highly professional. We even received feedback from our talent saying as much, praising both George and his crew. The material that came back was first-rate and George was a pleasure to work with at every step of the process. I would re-hire him, or recommend him, in a heartbeat.
