I have edit produced many series and single docs which might not be apparent from my credits as most of them read 'Producer / Director'. However, I come from the old BBC world where PDs edit produced all their own material so I have a wealth of edit experience.
I shoot to DOP level on a variety of cameras, but I am most experienced using Canon and Sony equipment. I am very experienced in lighting and also in the recording of sound.
I have a great deal of experience working with presenters, celebrities and contributors and am very adept at dealing with commissioners.
My background is in arts documentaries and I worked on these for many years for the BBC. However I am also very experienced in both directing and edit producing property shows. Living in Scotland, it is important to diversify as there tends not to be enough work in one particular genre to sustain a career. I think this can work in your favour as it makes you more of a rounded director and teaches impoirtant skills like running multiple teams and scheduling that you might not learn working on single docs.
In recent years I have been beginning to Series Produce and Direct which I find extremely satisying. I hope to do more of this in the future but I also still very much enjoy directing and edit producing.
