Shooting researcher, and camera/drone operator most recently working on 44 VTs for The One Show. Proven capability of working to tight deadlines on fast turnaround shoots, and directing and shooting high-profile talent. Experienced with maintaining in-house kit and troubleshooting on location.

Previously greaduated an MA in Wildlife Filmmaking from UWE (in partnership with the BBC NHU) with Distinction. I’ve lived, worked, and filmed in remote locations in Costa Rica, Colombia and New Zealand – volunteering as a researcher in the Osa peninsula, CR, and a Marine Mammal Medic in NZ.

I am confident in researching and developing new ideas across a variety of scientific fields & documentary subgenres – independently and as part of the course, I have produced and edited a behavioural film capturing the dramatic stories of pond-dwelling microbes, conservation films and human portrait films. Particularly interested in macro & microscopy, ethnozoology, and conservation stories. www.danshortwild.com – for examples of my films and photography. Read Less
