Adam Merridan
Production Assistant
I’m a Commercial Production Assistant and Production Coordinator with a strong background in managing high-pressure shoots for major advertising campaigns, independent films, and Channel 4 pitch films. I’ve also worked on a feature-length documentary and several docu-style pieces, which have sharpened my storytelling instincts and ability to handle sensitive, real-world content. Over the years, I’ve supported the production of a wide variety of shoots — from small-scale, budget-conscious interview pieces to full-scale TVCs — adapting my approach to meet the unique needs of each project. I’ve played a key role in both UK-based and international productions, including shoots in India, South Africa, and Italy, overseeing logistics, scheduling, and on-the-ground coordination. I’m known for being highly organised, calm under pressure, and a clear communicator across all levels of production. With a strong understanding of APA guidelines and industry best practices, I help ensure smooth, compliant, and respectful working environments. I build strong relationships with talent, clients, and crew, drawing on years of customer-facing experience to bring professionalism and flexibility to every set. I take pride in contributing to seamless productions and delivering high-quality results under tight timelines.
