Helen has proved to be an excellent director/producer on Flog It. She has great story telling and script writing skills which she continuously delivers under the pressure of working on a fast turn a round production. Helen has strong personable skills. Great with people which has proved invaluable for access and general smooth running of her shoots. Helen has produced a huge variety of inserts within her programmes. Well thought through and strong story lines. She is good with on screen talent producing the best performance and getting them to agree to most things she asks to nail her story!. Helen is used to directing crews under time pressure whilst making sure she gets what she needs to deliver her filming script.
As a producer/director on Flog It Helen cuts her own programmes and in the edit she is equally strong at writing commentary, telling and illustrating a story. Helen has also edit produced on the series Break In Britain. A crime series for daytime cutting 45 mins in 11 days. Again she delivered high class programmes. If Helen is free I will always ask her back to edit produce or direct on programmes where I need a dependable producer who can deliver.
