Summary

As a student with so much learn about the industry, collaboration and teamwork are the foundations of being successful in my work. I am proud to be around other creatives, carefully deciphering how to problem solve production challenges. I am in my final year of Cinematography and Film Production at Bournemouth University, my course has been 75% practical and although full on at times has built my stamina and dedication to efficient filmmaking. My mains values are too respect every department and crew member on set, and always listen carefully. Correct communication and clarity in your role is the best way to learn and develop.

Work History

Student Work

  • In student roles I have had the pleasure to work on 5, 16mm productions using Arri SR3 as producer twice, sound recordist, script supervisor twice (once producer and script supervisor together) and camera operated on a Bolex H16. It taught me huge patience and understanding of your teammates. It shaped my understanding of how to be efficient yet calm working with a 50 year old camera and film stock, which had vicarious and constant challenges.
  • On digital short student films I have worked as editor, set builder twice, director twice, boom operator and camera operator. I got the chance to be smaller but vital roles and roles that oversee the vision, all teaching me to how to flourish and guard production whatever level of the hierarchy you are and to always take pride in your work.

Hospitality Worker

  • Working in restaurants fulltime since 16 before attending this course and currently, I have learnt stamina, teamwork, punctuality, respect and enjoy the completion of a job.
  • I find myself always enjoying being in fast paced environments where challenges consistently arise, as long as you are within a team, no challenge is too great.
  • I have learnt fundamentals of personal development, punctuality, professional presence and communication.
