Focal archive award winning and good humoured archive specialist with over 25 years’ experience. I've recently completed contracts at 72 Films and Two Rivers. My most recent documentary feature, 'The Last Musician of Auschwitz', is being launched this month with a special screening introduced by Tim Davie at The British Museum. Credits for all major UK broadcasters, streamers and solid US credits. I have worked across most documentary genres including history, current affairs, science, natural history, entertainment and comedy. I am an imaginative, creative and tenacious researcher who can think at tangents when required and a strong negotiator when the budget needs stretching. I have excellent close personal contacts with major international archive sources and also academic sources and high quality private sources. From the highly specific HD aerial of a white SUV, driving on the right, in a pine forest, in the snow, travelling from the bottom to the top of the screen to match the missing shot from the shoot to the masturbating dolphin (yes really) you name it, I've found it and cleared it.
Testimonial: You have not only been a joy to work with, but you are one the most creative, competent and supportive colleagues it has ever been my pleasure to work with. And this isn't empty flattery, but very sincerely meant. The archive sequences are so effective because they offer such perfect illustrations of the ideas expressed by Darwin and the Darwin experts - Antony Thomas Emmy, BAFTA and Grierson winning film maker.
