Read MoreOver 10 years working in pre-production and production on active shoots. Specialised in maximising production value while keeping strictly within budget. Highly resourceful, enthusiastic, motivated, task driven individual with excellent organisational and strong inter-personal skills who is comfortable working off own initiative, as well as in a team.My background is in film production and so I am particularly interested in production work on film or TV Drama projects, I'm also open to Factual.Working to pay my way through short courses, I started producing short films for film school students. After a couple of years working in production I was offered a scholarship and attended the Met Film School, graduating in November 2014 with a 2:1 BA (Hons) Practical Filmmaking.With a wealth of knowledge and experience in all areas of pre-production and on-set production, (in particular independent projects with extremely tight budgets), I have proven myself as a resourceful manager. Adapting the work I create and the teams I manage, to deliver effective solutions for clients in a timely manner while still achieving a high standard. Among these are short films, music videos and a variety of challenging projects including a feature film now available on Amazon Prime.With such a strong background in pre-production and on-set film production, when my projects went on hold indefinitely during Covid, I decided it was worth taking a couple of steps back to a coordinator role, to try utilising my production skills in VFX production. I took a job at MPC as a VFX Production Coordinator, where I’ve spent the last year working on "Prehistoric Planet", learning everything I could from MPC about the VFX side of the industry. I am now eager to get back into non VFX production as things have opened up again.I am a driven and motivated individual and I believe my experience makes me an asset on any production, be it film or TV.My showreel can be viewed at the following link: https://vimeo.com/107301117Trailer for feature film "The Green Sea" can be viewed at the following link: https://youtu.be/H9hbXEoGZw8Trailer for "Prehistoric Planet" can be viewed at the following link: https://youtu.be/vnoNeMlNeD0Please do not hesitate to contact me should you have any questions.
Read LessHelen is a very talented resourceful film maker. She has worked with our company many times and is always the first person we hire when we have a new film. She has been a crucial part of our team for many years and I have watched her experience level mature, bringing new skills and ideas to every project. She has an ability of being resourceful even under budget constraints. I can not compliment her enough, she is one to watch in the future.
