“Edd is an outstanding assistant producer, boasting a combination of incredible field craft, great storytelling instinct and calm, creative energy. He’s a fantastic talent. He’s been at Silverback since 2019 where I’ve seen him rise from researcher on Life On Our Planet to assistant producer on Arctic. He consistently delivered outstanding, original sequences, many of which had never been attempted before. He brings creativity, diligence, and a genuinely positive attitude to everything he does, making him exactly the kind of collaborator every producer wants on their team. Even if he does spell his name a little oddly.”

Dan Tapster | Silverback Films | Showrunner of ‘Life On Our Planet’ | Netflix 2023


About me:
Highly experienced Natural History Researcher and Location Director with global blue-chip credits, including Life on Our Planet and more recently a highly ambitious series focussed on the High Arctic for Netflix. I've had the opportunity to undertake some incredible shoots in extreme and remote environments, including multiple underwater storytelling. Previous location directing experience includes helicopter GSS, Arctic freediving and pole cam, long lens, rebreather underwater benthic behaviour, human and macro shoots, many of which are new to blue-chip behavioural sequences.

Working in these remote locations and small communities has been equally rewarding as it has challenging and the ambition of the Arctic series has allowed me to gain experience above the level that the researcher role traditionally entails (please see CV for more details).

A qualified GVC drone pilot, AIDA 3* freediver and wilderness first aider I look to combine a versitile skillset with a high bar for creative imagery of the natural world. Composed, positive and collaborative under pressure, I'm now looking to bring my experience and attitude to Assistant Producer roles on world-class factual productions.
