      Started in Film Industry at 17 as a runner on various films with my father.After completing my Illustration Degree at Leeds I worked in a local newspaper briefly where I saw an advertisement for 'runners'​ for the then thriving Complete Video in Covent Garden. After forcing my way to the head of the queue I was taken on at their sister company The Edit Works.I trained under Barry Noakes and Peter Morgan as a camera assistant. During this time I also operated on various Dramas for Peter (Red Dwarf and The Detectives, The 10 Percenters).At present I’m shooting and lighting a wide range of briefs from Commercials (More Than, VAX,BT) through to Magic shows and Corporate projects. Clients include BT, BP, Roche and Samsung.The end of 2012 saw me lighting the short feature 'Breakthrough'​ for director Damien Goodwin that had its first outing at BAFTA earlier this year. So here it is, just released on Vimeo: http://vimeo.com/99275494Also through our training programme at Procam TV I have actively helped the crew shoot 2 Pop Promos for The Bad Flowers.
