Fully available at weekends - Central London base. I have running experience locking-off locations, maintaining kit, transporting rushes and organising contributors for auditions and filming. I also have casting research experience, working with sensitive stories and international contributors. Both high volume and specific stories - as well as traditional and social media casting.
I can shoot confidently with a range of cameras and data wrangle and so I am looking to transfer these skills into a career in TV.
I am a self-shooter, editor and producer with over six years experience working in video across live events, branded content and within the charity sector.
I have lots of experience working directly with contributors, talent and experts across social justice, human rights and climate action.
Previously I worked as a Video Manager at an international charity, I produced and directed documentaries premiered at COP26, and I’ve worked on shows for BBC One, ITV & Channel 4 as a runner and Jnr researcher.
I am a trusted and reliable member of any team, and I occasionally freelance. So, if you’re looking to crew up, do feel free to drop me a message.

Nick helped us out with casting across 3 days at an exhibition screen testing couples to appear on A Place in the Sun. He was super efficient and totally on top of the job, plus he was pleasant to work with too. I would happily book him again for casting work. A positive smart person who will go far.
