I specialise in making conventional-looking TV, and with dealing with unwilling and often foreign talent in a respectful and empathetic manner. I shoot on a Sony XD Camera with full kit. I also edit long and short-form video on various software, though mainly FCP. My long-form shooting and editing has been broadcast internationally on various established broadcasters. I have now also branched-out into social media and corporate video storytelling.
