About me
I’m Jonathan, a writer, editor, radio presenter, producer, podcaster and all around media fanatic; whether that be in print, online, or broadcast. I have always been dedicated to media and its ability to reach a huge array of people, educate them and surprise them with great storytelling.
Outside of the TV world I have worked across a variety of different subjects ranging from culture, sports and industry journalism to working as a Factual Production Runner for ‘Woman’s Hour’ on BBC Radio 4.
Thank you very much for taking the time to read my profile. I would be more than happy to provide references and an assortment of my work on request.
Projects
- CSRfm's Film Lounge #3This is an episode of a show that I co-presented and produced called CSRfm's Film Lounge where we critically discussed the latest film releases. My role involved producing pre-recorded content including a section called the 'cult film roundtable' where a group of my friends would watch a film and then chat about it after. I would record these discussions and edit them into somewhat listenable 10-12 minute segments for the show. Another duty of mine was to make and maintain contact with local cinemas so we could acquire press tickets to screenings.
- Scott Matthews @ Cadogan Hall 26/02/2015This is a review I wrote of Scott Matthews' gig at Cadogan Hall. As part of my role I had to contact the PR company and organise press tickets as well as attend and write the review. The review was picked up by Matthews' PR team and was promoted on their Facebook page.
