Communication:
 
I’m a confident, clear and proficient communicator when liaising with cast, extras, production staff, crew, contributors, audiences, outside contractors and suppliers - both verbally & written (e.g. call sheets & email communications). My years of broadcast TV experience have allowed me to develop excellent delegation, leadership, time keeping, people & crowd management skills. I am a personable crew member with a calm, efficient and easy going attitude. My background in studio programming ensures I always stick to deadlines & thrive under pressure. I'm no stranger to hard work & love the challenge of beating expectations.

Responsible for managing principle artists, setting call times, costume / make up calls, cueing SFX, co-ordinating breaks, rehearsals & live audience records. For Indie TV & films I have experience creating & issuing movement orders, booking extras via Talent Agencies, booking locations & arranging fees. On many productions I've been responsible for production floats, cash payments, rushes / kit / stock management, ensuring the safe transportation, charging & operations of production technology inc. laptops, walkie talkies, audio play-out systems & Sat Nav's. 
 
 

I always strive to create & maintain positive relationships & efficient communication with the production team, crew & talent on location and back at the production office.
