Work history
    Shooter Director
    London, United KingdomFull Time
    Shooting and Directing a range of content for the agencies clients, with names from New Balance, Homebase, Rowse, Linkedin, Samsung & Rubicon. Working on varying scales of jobs, from studio set ups, to on the go run-and-gun set ups. I work end-to-end on jobs, inputting on the concept to the final technical delivery. When not shooting I’m editing both my own material and others, working to tv, social and online outputs. I also at times liaise with outside post-houses and production companies, attend grades and voice over sessions.
