About me
ABOUT ME
A versatile and hardworking individual, currently seeking next role as a Junior Researcher or Production Assistant. I have had a fantastic 6 months working at Blast! Films, on a variety of different documentary productions, but I am now looking to transfer my skillset elsewhere, as well as building on my experience.
Skilled in setting up shoots, dealing with contributors, conducting thorough research, fact-checking and logging. Moving forward, I am wanting to build up the editorial route, so am keen to get more location and casting experience.
