About Me

I've been a documentary director and exec for around 30 years. I run Landmark Film School where I offer short, practical film schools on most aspects of documentary making - Read More

Working with Nick at Landmark Films for seven years as his Head of Development was a joyful, creative and rewarding professional experience. The culture and ethos of the company was unique: Nick grew Landmark to become a leading provider of high-rating and critically acclaimed prime-time documentaries. While the films reflect Nick's unique voice as an exceptional storyteller and one who always maintained the highest respect and sensitivity towards his contributors, what is perhaps even more impressive is his commitment to talent development. While leading the company to commercial success, Nick has always prioritised bringing up new talent from across all sides of production. He has great insight and intuition when it comes to spotting potential and ability and proved an exceptional and generous mentor to many, many individuals who moved up through the company. He took enormous pride in their successes. The high regard in which Nick is held by commissioning editors, by his peers and by the staff he nurtured is testament to his unique talent, humour and humanity.
