About me
I am Peter (they/them), I have 5 years of experience writing, producing, shooting, and editing video content for online consumption, as well as experience of live streaming and podcasting. I have a keen interest in both scripted and unscripted content, including drama, documentary, commercial, promotional, and music videos. Alongside this, I have worked on a number of my own personal projects including my documentary short 'A Tower Block in Ladbroke Grove' that won multiple awards at number of film festivals. With these skills and experience I am currently looking for the opportunity to fully break into the film and TV industry proper

- How QUILOMBO UK Adapted & Succeeded during the PANDEMIC!This video is one I shot and edited for Quilombo UK showcasing how they adapted and changed their model of work during the first lockdown in 2020. This was to showcase the changes to their professional development program for volunteers, particularly from BAME and other minority groups, to develop their skills and gain experience to achieve gainful employment in their desired industry, and as an enterprise working to foster conversations about diversity and inclusion through creative endeavours
