Read MoreRecent work - Creative lead and Series Editor on The Fortune Hotel for Tuesday's Child and ITV1. Co-creator and SP of Apocalypse Wow for Tuesday's Child and ITV2. Co-creator and Showrunner of Killer Camp Season 2 for Tuesday's Child and The CW. I have extensive experience across all aspects of production from development through to the edit. I’m passionate about TV and love bringing stories to life. Over the last few years I’ve often worked on ambitious formats. I’ve been a Series Producer or Senior Producer on shows like Release the Hounds (ITV2), Carnage (SKY ONE), Evil Monkeys (ITV2) and Big Heads (ITV). I relish this scale of project. Working with all departments to make story driven TV that looks and sounds fantastic. I started out writing and directing comedy shorts and commercials. This background has given me excellent technical knowledge as well as a passion for injecting humour (where appropriate!) into my work. I am equally happy in development, working up a format into a teaser or pilot. Or fleshing out the legend of a show and finding a way for it to work practically. Skills and Experience - Managing and working closely with talent, both as hosts and contestants. - Handling multiple edits, be it setting a format or keeping established content fresh. - Writing shooting scripts and keeping them them pithy and memorable. - Managing casting teams, booking both the public and celebrities. - Working with commissioners - from pitching aspects of a show to dealing with post-production feedback. - Managing a games team - On Release the Hounds and Killer Camp I worked with Game Producers to create many original games from quizzes to ambitious action based challenges.
