I am a freelance digital script supervisor, trained at Pinewood Studios by ScreenSkills, GBCT, and BFI. I use Skarratt and Scriptation on my iPad and I have a driving licence (25+) and car.

With experience script supervising TV, features, and short films, I have a keen eye for detail, continuity, and coverage. I write thorough reports (facing pages, DPRs, tramlines) and enjoy working closely with other departments to ensure excellent continuity, anticipating and solving issues before they arise with a positive solution-focussed approach. I work with both single and multicam setups.

Through my experience as an award winning writer, I have an in-depth understanding of script and story, which I use throughout a project - from breaking down scripts in prep, to ensuring important story beats are captured on set.

I have experience feeding actors lines through earpieces, as well as running and training script prompt departments. My line-feeding method ensures accurate performances, with precise dialogue sounding as natural as improvisation. Actors find the experience freeing, allowing them to give authentic, moving performances.

I also offer scriptwriting and editing services, which I can be booked for during preproduction. Currently, I am writing a commission for (TBA) and editing scripts for a ScreenDog and Channel 4 TV series. My favourite genres are comedy, true stories, and WW2. With a first-class Creative Writing Degree from Warwick University, I hold the following accolades for my writing:

Best Comedy Play - Greater Manchester Fringe
Finalist for Chorts 2023 by The Comedy Crowd
2nd Place Audience Choice Award - GMFringe
OffFest Nominated - OffWestEnd
TopWrite Scholarship - Swanwick Writers’ Summer School
