About me

My name is Ian Mann. I have been a freelance lighting cameraman and editor for over fifteen years, I've filmed and edited a diverse range of programmes for the BBC, ITV, CH4, Five, SKY, SKY Sports and other digital channels. Not to mention the brand funded and corporate films that I have worked on. This has included: documentary, entertainment drama and live sports events filmed on location across the UK and worldwide. I am passionate about my profession and have earned a reputation for hard work which generates results. I am easy going and reliable and would be an asset to any production team. Experienced in all video formats from high definition, DSLR to DV and used to working under pressure, you can see samples of my work at www.ian-mann-dop.com
