The Halki Seminary in Heybeliada, Istanbul, was first established in 1844, and was one of the top institutions for theological education in the Greek Orthodox world. The Greek Orthodox seminary trained future parish leaders until 1971, when the Turkish authorities forcibly shuttered the monastery for almost 50 years. Today, under the leadership of chaplain Father Ioann, the monastery is preparing to reopen again, allowing visitors to marvel at its treasures inside, including a Bible written in Greek, Latin, Arabic, Syrian, Ethiopian, and Persian. The journey to its reopening, however, will not be smooth. Uighur Muslims leave their homes in China where they face mass detention, heavy surveillance and even alleged torture. Hatice Abudurexiti and her daughter have found refuge and are rebuilding their lives in Istanbul, Turkey. Syrian youth comes of age through five years of war. Originally published in PBS News Hour: http://www.pbs.org/newshour/updates/syrian-youth-come-of-age-through-five-years-of-war/ Ten years after Katrina, we looked at how Southern Louisiana has changed through the eyes of musicians. These musicians had their lives dramatically reshaped by the storm, and they are now working to build a new Louisiana. This was commissioned by the Guardian Docs channel. This piece reveals the lives of two Russian-language YouTube stars broadcasting from a war zone. We traveled to the edge of Ukraine, near the border with Russia to find these two and film their backyard experiments and how they've been impacted by the ongoing crisis. We traveled to the northern reaches of Alaska and then hopped the border to Canada for this branded piece on the hard work it takes to deliver the US Mail in the far north. I directed, produced and shot second camera with a crew of five. This branded piece appeared on social media channels for the client, a media buying agency in Midtown Manhattan. The short Doc won the grand prize by the Brazilian Film Academy of Best Short Doc produced in Brazil in 2019. “Cor de Pele” is a sensitive documentary about the life of Kauan, an 11 year-old brazilian albino boy. Born to black parents, Kauan describes his day-to-day routine with his atypical family, as he has five siblings: two albino ones and three black ones. Even with all of his condition’s limitations, he breaks barriers and inserts himself in the abundant black local culture of his home town. The short doc won several awards, including best documentary at Boston Film Festival and audience award at São Paulo Film Festival (the biggest at Lantin American) Food shots Reel 2018 In the outskirts of Sao Paulo, a spoken-word poetry movement is growing in the slums and spreading across Brazil to Rocinha, the largest slum in Rio de Janeiro. Joseph Hudson started work at the age of 12 in the engineering workshops of Birmingham. He trained for 7 years as a toolmaker learning to do by hand the many tasks so often undertaken by a machine today. In these early times he learned the skills that made him a superb craftsman in metal, later forming J Hudson & Co Whistles Ltd., which would become ACME Whistles.

About Henry M.
Over the last 18 years, I have worked in almost every field of film, TV and video production and television journalism, and have spent the last nine years managing my own news and media production company. I have an excellent knowledge of the industry, as well as a proven track record of running a company and managing staff, projects and budgets. I have lived and worked in many different countries, all over the world, producing anything from news and feature stories, to sport, to branded content and everything in between. My experience overseas has given me a truly unique perspective on global current affairs and has fostered a deep interest in exploring every story I come across from as many different perspectives as I can see. I also have experience of working in conflict zones, covering major riots in China in 2008 and 2009, and I was in Libya for one month, during the fall of Tripoli, working for APTN. I have also covered several natural disasters, including the 2008 Sichuan Earthquake and flooding in Southern China. As well as possessing exceptional writing skills, my work in TV and new media, has given me a unique skill set, enabling me to get a message out to the widest possible audience, in the most engaging way and often to a tight budget. Working as a video journalist/producer, I have acquired further skills as a story-teller. I am an excellent lighting cameraman and video editor, filming on a wide range of cameras and formats and able to script and edit to tight deadlines. I am also a skilled Steadicam operator, with my own rig, suitable for most requirements. Post-production-wise, I consider myself an expert in the use of Premiere, Audition, Photoshop, Lightroom and After Effects, as well as several other programs in the Creative Suite. I also regularly edit with Final Cut Pro, Avid and Davinci Resolve. I am equally at home in the pre-production office, in front or behind the camera, in the edit suite or in a live studio environment. As well as working extensively with all kinds of video production, I am also an accomplished photographer, and often combine photography with my video work.
