I have worked with Joe for over a year and have loved doing so. Joe is brilliant and reliable. An utter joy to be around - he’s great in a team and brilliant taking responsibility for entire shoots and edits on his own too. When we’ve worked together he’s excelled in setting up shoots, filming, edit producing, casting and looking after contribs etc. And his attention to detail and care around compliance and duty of care is exemplary. He’s also a great ideas generator in development and brings this editorial insight and creativity to productions. And I’d totally trust him with key commissioning and client relationships. I hope we get the chance to work together again soon.
