He quickly became a key member of the team producing Head to Head, filmed as-live at the Oxford Union. Fabian provided much of the intellectual backbone of this series and was excellent at identifying the right narrative arc for each show. He also applied his great research and production skills on UpFront, a new current affairs show out of Washington DC. Overall, Fabian is resourceful, hard-working, very dependable and a pleasure to work with. He will be a real asset to any production. - JP Raymond, Executive Producer, Head to Head and UpFront Fabian Pop worked as a Researcher/Assistant Producer on Al Jazeera English’s pioneering new strand The Big Picture. As a central part of a core team, he helped research the narrative outline of The People vs America series as well as identify/research key narrative stories and contributors. Fabian’s skills as an excellent researcher were a great help in making sure the details of the narrative were correct and factually tight. He proved adept at locating appropriate contributors for interviews and setting up shoots, as well as pre-interviewing contributors for research purposes. Allied to this, Fabian’s technical and creative aptitudes were brought to bear on shoots that deployed creative filming methods using stills and projections. Fabian is intelligent and knowledgeable with a keen journalistic sense as well as a solid grasp of the mechanics of production. I believe he would be a valued addition to any production team. - Sanjiev Johal, Series Producer, Al Jazeera English. Read Less
