Alec is a brilliant producer/director and I'd have no hesitation recommending him for work. He has an excellent eye, is always enthusiastic and charming, remains calm under pressure and gets the best out of presenters. He is also very good at knowing what is needed to tell a story even when time is tight and at thinking on his feet when things change on location. Because Alec also edits, his sense of what will work visually in a story is well developed too. He's technically adept, has a wide range of camera skills and I look forward to working with him again on another project soon.
Alec is a brilliant Producer Director with a real talent for capturing powerful stories. He builds trust quickly with contributors, which is especially important when working on sensitive subject matter, and he always handles those situations with empathy and care. I’ve seen him deliver on tough shoots in the US under very challenging schedules and tight budgets, yet he still manages to bring out the best in people and produce great results. On top of his skills, Alec is simply a great person to work with - calm, collaborative and good-humoured, even when the pressure is on.
