In addition to short film-making, I have filmed a wide variety of events. From weddings to music concerts, I love getting involved on camera and have often been praised on my skilled cinematography, use of focus and framing. Recent events are at the top of the page.
Experience
WEDDINGS
Emma and Luke

Rebecca and David
Summer 2007:
I was filming the wedding of Rebecca and David in Leicestershire, England on roaming and static camera. Rockingham Castle was a beautiful venue, and I was able to capture surroundings as well as the arrivals, ceremony, speeches and after-party. I edited the entire film and distributed it out to friends and family of the bride and groom.

I was on static camera, capturing wide and medium shots of the action amongst a packed audience. Footage was projected live onto a screen and online to Newport TV’s (NTV) website. With live updates on the BritishEyeFilms facebook and twitter pages, the online feed brought an additional audience of over 400, pushing NTV into the top 5 most watched university broadcasts in the UK.

As part of the University of Cambridge’s 800th anniversary events, the Molecular Research Centre (MRC) of Cambridge held a public talk explaining the benefits and how to make tasty, healthy food.

As part of the University of Cambridge’s 800th anniversary introductory events, the events department asked me to film a public talk by bestselling author Nick Arnold. I worked on static and roaming camera in HD.
NEWPORT CITY RADIO
November 2009:
I directed and edited a news video and audio blog for Newport City Radio, broadcast in sound, and made available in video on their website.
Directing Duncan Birnie and Matt Hains from TapeHeadFilms, I interviewed cast members at the premiere of ‘A Bit of Tom Jones?’, including John Henshaw. With thanks to the film’s director, Peter-Watkins Hughes, I then edited the interviews in with footage from the trailer and recorded a news voiceover.
