WHAT PRODUCERS SAY
It's really no exaggeration to say they are among the very finest work we've done in the crime space - and we have done a lot of good stuff
I just wanted to say I watched The Real Adolescence and was absolutely blown away by your work.
The film is bloody amazing and we want to include it in our festival trailer.

MORE ABOUT ME →WHY BOOK ME
Rushes the same day
900 Mbps at base: 500 GB uploaded in under three hours, anywhere. Nothing sitting on a drive waiting for the post.
Sound with a backup
DPA 2017s and Deity Theos wireless, recording to the device as well as the receiver, with RF scanning for the cleanest channel. If the signal drops, the audio’s still there.
Lit and ready quickly
Full Aputure lighting and a rig I know inside out. Matters most when the person in the chair is nervous and the schedule is tight.
Everything travels
Own kit, own van, full carnet. British and Spanish passports, iVisa and Global Entry for the US. Short notice is fine.
