      Production assistant

      Prior to studying for a degree in Film & TV Production I had the privilege to intern at Markettiers' London studios. My main responsibilities were to assist with internal studio productions, I also catalogued and ingested shoot rushes for offline edits. Alongside this I assisted with company communications, taking phone calls and applying myself as a runner for a number of projects. While this was a small role, Markettiers opened my eyes to unlimited possibilities within video production and taught me to think outside the box. I was also fortunate to work with some bubbly, lovely people at my time there, which really showed me how much of a family culture and togetherness there can be to productions - something I didn't quite appreciate beforehand.

      Production assistant

      After university I was fortunate to meet Rich and Kay at Squeezed Media, a wonderful duo who run a unique, streamlined and exciting production house in Soho, London specialising in corporate video content.Such duties included pre-production organisation for shoots in and around the UK and Europe, arranging client business meetings, stringent maintenance of assets archives, folder structures and studio bookings. As well as this I began to practice my editing and motion graphics skills across the adobe suite of applications. Alongside the internal organisation of the office, on-set production responsibilities included lighting set ups and camera operation using Canon c300s and 5Ds as well as boom operator for several interviews. Every day I was on set with the Squeezed Media I was learning something new, it really fed my appetite for production and crafting video content. Show less
