    Summary
    I'm a producer, director and editor specialising in corporate video.   Since 2002 I have been senior producer managing all in house video production for Oracle Corporation in EMEA.  From our four-camera studio I manage a small team of freelaners who produce a wide variety of audio, video and multi media projects including customer case studies, live webcasts, training and promotional films and employee communications.

    My skills include script writing, producing, self shooting on Z1 or similar, location directing DSR or Varicam crews, live studio and OB VMD, editing in FCP, I'm also highly IT literate with experience of Flash, Illustrator, Photoshop, HTML, SMIL and video streaming in Real media and Windows Media.

    I have worked in the US, South Africa and across much of northern Europe where I've developed some very good contacts.  I have bags of energy and enthusiasm, am a creative thinker and problem solver and have excellent leadership and presenting skills.
