My Work Printer friendly CV

As a broadly experienced freelance filmmaker with a decade in the industry, I have worked on various projects including advertisements for large corporations and smaller businesses, music promos, documentaries and feature films. I am well-versed in every stage of the filmmaking process, from concept development, scriptwriting, planning, to shooting, editing, and post-production. Not to mention experience on stills shoots as well

Throughout my career, I have collaborated with diverse teams and clients, including big named stars, artists, independent filmmakers, production companies, and contributors with no media training. This experience has allowed me to develop strong communication and interpersonal skills. I am confident in my ability to work independently, meet deadlines, and adapt to changing project requirements.

Here are some highlights of my achievements:

- Co-managing director of a production company for 2 years, alongside 2 other business partners.

- Produced and directed music promos / fashion films / online content / documentaries / short films up to £30k.

- Creative director for an up-and-coming art gallery in London.

- Naomi Campbell’s videographer for her on going personal documentary project.
