I'm a capable Video Journalist and self-shooting Producer/Director with a strong editorial background, having been trained as a broadcast journalist. As a Masters graduate from City University London and working for world-renowned websites and broadcasters such as BBC, Sky and The Telegraph. I am educated and experienced in all aspects of television journalism, meaning I understand the complexities involved in factual film-making. From a technical perspective I can shoot on a range of cameras (FS5, FS5, C100, GH5), with my own Lumix GH5 kit and edit using either Premiere Pro or FCP. With a special interest in human interest and observational documentaries, I am comfortable and confident engaging with difficult subject matter and sensitive contributors - something I consider one of my greatest strengths.

Alex is wonderful to work with, regularly going above and beyond to deliver exceptional work. She was able to build trust and rapport with homeless contributors remarkably quickly. She also cares deeply about the final film and strives to make it as accurate, sensitive, and professional as possible. I would certainly recommend her as a very talented filmmaker.
