Read MoreI am a 24-year-old from London. I graduated in 2018 from Ravensbourne University, where I studied Digital TV Production for three years and achieved a 2:1 grade. I am currently looking for the next chapter in what has already been an exciting early career in digital media. I am interested in a documentary making, comedy, music videos and various other genres of media. I also enjoy art, style and design.My most recent role was as a in-house videographer for Bolt Growth Marketing (https://www.growwithbolt.com/)
My latest role was as a full-time, in-house videographer for a marketing agency named bolt. There I was in charge of all things video which included:
● Pitching ideas to clients
● Storyboarding
● Preproduction planning
● Risk assessments
● Lighting
● Audio
● Camera Operation
● Editing (Premiere Pro)
● Delivery to the client.I consider myself good with people. I am a team player with a great work ethic. Due to the skills learnt through university and my career I am able to fill multiple roles with different kinds of people. I enjoy brainstorming ideas and working creatively with others to create brilliant content. Many have described me as mature for my age, but I’m also able to have a laugh and enjoy myself.At university, I gained some fantastic experience. I was chosen to work on filming assignments on behalf of the university in both Uganda and China, where I worked as a camera operator, editor and producer. During my time at university I also was chosen by the university to pitch a show idea to Dom Bird at channel 4 named ‘Viral’.Between 2018 to 2019 I worked with a production company in London called UFF where I was given the opportunity to write, produce and direct my first documentary (which can be found on Amazon Fire) as well as a weekly comedy show which averaged around 12k views per week on YouTube. During my time at UFF I also presented to camera during the 2018 World Cup, interviewing football fans and being broadcasted on London Live. I have also worked on many shoots as a production runner with companies such as BT Sport, CC-Lab and Luminaries LTD.I also worked for IMG. There I would make sure live sports broadcasting from all over the world is being streamed successfully to millions of viewers. I liaise with producers on every continent and I am often responsible for major pay-per-view events running smoothly.I can bring a good, positive attitude to any shoot of office space and I love meeting new people. I have a passion for a wide range of creative platforms. I enjoy pitching new ideas and have an extensive knowledge of roles on set. I can think outside of the box and approach any job with a professional and efficient manner.
