About me
I am an experienced freelance videographer and editor who has just received a masters from the University of Sussex in Digital Documentary; following on from my undergraduate degree in film and television studies at Southampton Solent University receiving an upper second class degree. I have also been producer and director in many productions including a 20 minute long television show for the National Trusts 50 Things to do Before you're 11 & 3/4’s’ scheme, Lad Bible and Bright Light Film. I have many other video accomplishments working for production companies and on my own projects, most notably a documentary on the difficult subject of autism found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xeXJBM9aalQ
I find that I am able to handle the pressure very well, and every shoot and edit I complete is at broadcast standard. I am very used to heavy work loads and also very enthusiastic with all projects and work I am privileged to receive. I am a fast learner and have been able to adapt to the ever changing media industry.
The media industry has taught me how to work very well within a team but also the ability to take charge when necessary and help guide the team. I am always working to a deadline, and I always try my utmost best to be punctual within projects. I would be a valuable asset to your team as I am bubbly confident and always cheerful with the skills and mindset to match. I bring to the table the skills that you require to work within your company. and hope you feel the same way
I look forward to discussing my qualifications further and can be reached by email at jjrproductions2@gmail.com or by phone on 07538944240.
Thank you very much for your time.
