Christian is hugely talented and I loved working with him. He was Series Director on Harry’s Heroes: Euro Having A Laugh for ITV and is hands down the best SD I’ve worked with so far. He’s brilliant visually but equally as strong editorially which really sets him apart. He’s tenacious, a real perfectionist, works so hard and really cares. He’s also funny and great to have on a Team. He is brilliant on location, no matter how stressful things get, he just takes it all in his stride. He’s also fantastic in the edit - a great Writer, gets pace and tone, and how to craft story. Our Edit took place during Covid-19 lockdown and I’m so pleased Christian was still on-board as it gave me huge peace of mind whilst we were all working remotely. Can’t recommend him highly enough, can’t wait to work with him again, and very happy to give a reference if needed.
