I am an experienced and creative self-shooting Series Director / Series Producer / Senior PD. I've led teams on major series and acclaimed documentaries for SVODs (Netflix, Disney), UK broadcasters (BBC2, BBC3, C4, ITV, C5, Dave) and U.S networks (Nat Geo, Animal Planet, A&E). I specialise in character-led documentaries, adventure and blue chip natural history series. From producing talent to overseeing difficult access or finding ways to film in hostile environments, I am resourceful, have a huge network of international contacts and enjoy producing bold, exciting, boundary-pushing television.On location, I am a creative and reliable self-shooter (FS7, C300, XF705, 5D, RED) but am equally at home directing DOPs on drone / Shotover / GSS / Cineflex and underwater cameramen. I am confident leading teams in the field - whether that be filming families and first respondents during natural disasters or producing animal behavioural sequences in the polar regions. I am experienced taking projects through from access / development / pre-planning to managing and producing logistically-complex shoots and running multiple edits / scripting new series.In development, I've secured major commissions through gaining access, writing up treatments / ep break-downs and producing, shooting and cutting tasters (resulting in major returnable commissions for BBC, NHK and A&E Network). I have taken most of my footage into the edit, where I am organised, creative and have a great network of editors.I possess two clean passports and am up-to-date with all inoculations. I have written dive risk assessments and directed challenging underwater shoots (both open circuit and rebreather). Read Less
