I most recently researched on Blue Planet III for over two years, across the Polar Seas, High Seas, and Future Seas (Impact) episodes - giving me landmark research experience in a variety of remote international locations.
I have a 1st-class BSc Zoology, and an MA in Wildlife Filmmaking from UWE, where I independently researched, shot, produced and edited a short impact obs-doc on location in Costa Rica. I’m driven to show remarkable unseen animal behaviours and conservation solutions through creative, hopeful storytelling. I'm open to any opportunities from June 2025, with a particular interest in human-wildlife stories and never-before-seen animal behaviours.
Relevant skills and experience: - Finding novel wildlife behaviours and developing them into emotive story structures.
- Pitching story ideas.
- Foreign filming experience, including researcher on location for a polar liveaboard shoot.
- Shoot set up, storyboarding, drafting PRAs and drone RAs.
- Self-shooting, shooting BTS/digital content on location.
- Liaising with scientists and local guides/fixers to collate information on species and behaviours, and building relationships with contributors on location.
- Kit innovation & development, contributions to kit lists.
- Logging, making selects in Avid.
- Editing with Adobe Premiere Pro, Adobe Audition and Da Vinci Resolve
