TV WORK

I worked as a cameraman / interviewer for the ITV local Brighton branch. ITV local was a subsidiary service of ITV which ran from 2005-2009. I covered various events at the latter end of this period before it was subsumed back into itv.com due to budgetary reasons. The highlight of this work was interviewing Dame Vera Lynn on Rememberance day. It was very moving, especially filming her singing with the few remaining WW2 veteran soldiers (“my boys” as she called them). My piece made the South East regional evening news.

My other TV work was for Brighton based Latest TV, an independent TV station launched in 2012. I was one of their editors, working closely with their programme scheduler, studio manager and journalists. I edited footage to be broadcast complaint which meant very strict timing and adherence to OFCOM rules and regulations. This included news pieces, documentaries (including exclusive Ukrainian war reporting, a lot of which needed censoring) and various studio and location interviews. Some of my own studio interviews are below.
