My Single Camera/ENG work covers much News & Current Affairs for national, regional and overseas broadcast, and internal corporate communications. It also encompasses music, sport and corporate videos.
I have filmed for "The Cook Report" using concealed body cameras, fixed hidden cameras and 'night-vision' cameras, not forgetting their hallmark double crewed 'Stings'.
Light relief has included drama style corporates and local adverts, "Motorway" for Granada TV, location reports for "Tonight" (YTV Regional), "Tonight" with Trevor McDonald (don't blame me, I didn't name them!), "The Big Breakfast Show", GMTV and reports on the quirkier side of Britain for European distribution by RDF.
Outside Broadcast/Studio work includes many and various sports, (Motor sport, football, rugby, boxing, racing, & many others) as well as concerts, corporate conferences, fashion shows and internal communications. Cameras used cover studio, static, hand held & remote "Hot-Heads". The majority of recent OB work has been Racing (Racetech/Ch 4), Boxing (Sky) and British Superbikes (Sky/BBC).
