Luke worked as an edit producer on WWII: Witness to War that we produced at Like A Shot Entertainment. As his series producer/director I found Luke fully committed to putting in the work necessary to meet the tight deadlines that the project demanded. He demonstrated a great passion for the subject matter and successfully delivered big stories told clearly, concisely and creatively. He is also a thoroughly nice man who is a pleasure to work with.

I've worked with Luke on history programmes in both the UK and the US, and found him a huge asset to the team. I relied heavily on his resourcefulness in sharpening storytelling and cleverly directing research to support new story lines discovered late in the day. On location through a complicated shoot that took us from LA to New York to Dublin and Riga with A-list talent, Luke was vital to keeping everything on track. I'd work with him again without hesitation.
Luke has been invaluable in getting two complex shows made on an ambitious schedule. His historical research, shoot planning, wrangling of contributors and all-round narrative good sense have been spot on. In short, he's worryingly good at his job and a thoroughly nice chap to boot. Highly recommended.
Luke is a rock solid, diligent and experienced AP who has been a lynchpin in a great many Walking Through History episodes. He's taken a lead in generating ideas, on-the-ground research, shaping narrative, sourcing contributors, planning shoots, researching archive and checking facts. He also writes well, is keen to take responsibility and brings a positive vibe to the team around him. I recommend Luke.
