Bio
Edel Fowell
When I began working with Chris he was extremely warm and welcoming, and taught me a lot about working with children and presenters on set. He is a fantastic people person, great listener and always looks after his team. Chris always went above and beyond and would regularly implement new strategies to improve our creative and technical process and improve our overall output. It's no surprise that while working with Chris he stepped up to a more senior role. While Chris was in this senior position he helped to minimize daily frustrations and with a smile on his face, demonstrating patience and empathy at all times while still completing his own daily tasks. With Chris' emotional intelligence, his technical ability and creativity, I'm sure Chris will continue to progress and brighten up many more teams.

I have known Christopher Lovelock for several years; and have worked beneath him over the past year at Bradwell Media (Argos's in house production company). At this time Christopher was the senior videographer, he is an excellent leader, with great technical knowledge, and invested a significant amount of time in my development. He is well versed in studio best practices, and was a shining example within the team of how a studio can be run. I would happily endorse and recommend Chris to any business, confident that he would excel in the environment.
