Currently I work as a Videographer, though my job role and skill set is much more varied and I wish to utilise other skills.
As well as working on video projects in house for a variety of clients, I am also tasked as a Photographer, copywriter and animator.
I script, storyboard, shoot, edit and then I sometimes even push out my content on social media for a range of clients, from NHS to leisure centres and regional councils to construction firms.
The variety in this role has given me the skills and confidence to work closely with clients to deliver projects, use the Adobe suite proficiently and importantly develop a broader knowledge base.
In my previous role as a project coordinator, some of my duties included shot scheduling using CMS, detailed image checks and file management. I collaboratively worked to client briefs with a fast-paced turnaround meaning that deadlines were crucial and scheduling was key.
Prior to this, my role as a Marketing Assistant developed my skills in producing engaging content for social media. Utilising my copywriting skills, I wrote content for printed media and online blogs. I built relationships with clients and attended networking events to promote the company.
I don’t take myself too seriously, but I work hard and thrive in a friendly and collaborative environment.

VideographerCornerstone DM
Manchester, United KingdomFull Time
My role at Cornerstone is varied and inclusive of different areas of the business.
As a Videographer, my focus is on developing concepts and bringing those to life. I assemble the pre-production elements, write the script, design a storyboard, film and then edit the finished piece.
Although video is my prime focus in this role, my working week is highly varied and encompasses many other skills.
Photography and Video go hand in hand, and I work as a photographer on location with clients, and as a re-toucher to deliver final edited pieces.
My copywriting experience has enabled me to work on projects using these skills. My online training has expanded into increased knowledge of SEO and writing for marketing.

Project Coordinator/Team LeaderMedia Photography Company
London, United KingdomFull Time
My role here as a project coordinator required strong organisation and people skills. On a daily basis, I downloaded RAW files from our Photographers and marked these shots off against our CMS. Whilst doing this, I checked for any issues with the artwork / site which has been shot.
I assisted the studio manager with a variety of tasks daily, including picking locations, client delivery and photographer briefing.
As Team Leader, I oversaw the smooth running of projects and used different programs to ensure we worked efficiently and to a high standard.
Daily, I reviewed all processed shots, checking the quality and ensuring that the photographs met our requirements.
My interpersonal skills came in to use when liaising with the photographers and retouchers and I displayed strong written skills when completing photography permission requests for public areas.
