Fernando worked for us over a year and a half in a highly challenging seven-part documentary true crime series set in Brazil for a major streaming service, and I am able to highly reccommend him. Fernando was one of the first to join the team, and his responsibilities involved work across the spectrum: from helping us research a very complex story and put together seven treatments, to working as an AP on the shoot (often filming on his own) as well as contacting contributors and helping organise interviews. Once back in London as producers were editing, Fernando headed efforts to fact-check all the episodes and co-ordinate complicated post-production requirements. Despite the multiple, high and sometimes stressful demands of a very complex project, he was at all times a friendly voice and a reliable worker.
