Crew Listing


Description

I am a Camera Trainee seeking opportunities within the Camera Department and across any role in Virtual Production, with 4 years of industry experience spanning Live Broadcast, HETV, Feature Films, and Documentaries.

Some of my recent credits include:

. ITV Daytime: Good Morning Britain, This Morning, Lorraine, Loose Women
. TalkTV: Piers Morgan: Uncensored & others

In these roles, I have worked across VT, multi-skilled studio operations and robotic camera operation. I am now seeking to expand my experience in the Camera department (trainee and assistant roles) across HETV & Film, as well as explore opportunities within Virtual Production.

HETV, Feature Film & Documentary Experience:

. The Chelsea Detective (Expectation TV)
. Strike (Brontë Film & TV)
. Dungeons & Dragons (Paramount)
. Michael X: Hustler, Revolutionary, Outlaw (BBC)

Virtual Production & Motion Capture Experience:

I recently trained with Dimension Studios and DNEG through the Group Effort Initiative (GEI), where I gained:

. Experience with 360° cine cameras for plate shooting (Obsidian pro)
. An understanding of asset capture workflows (LiDAR scanners & Artec Leo)
. Hands-on experience in motion capture workflows, including Previs, Shogun Live & Post, Vicon systems, and optical marker systems
. A foundational understanding of Unreal Engine for Virtual Production

I am currently advancing my studies in Virtual Production with the University for the Creative Arts & In4Group, further developing my knowledge of real-time workflows and their application in Film & TV.

With bases in London and the North East (Sunderland), I am available for work across the UK. I am actively seeking Camera Trainee/Assistant roles in HETV & Film, as well as opportunities to further develop my skills within Virtual Production.

Please don’t hesitate to get in touch if you would like to discuss my experience further.
