Freelance Producer & Production Manager
Hobart, Tasmania, Australia
I've been lucky enough to say I've been around the industry since I was very young, working in minor roles such as production assistant and archiver. Although minor, these roles sparked my interest in the industry from such a young age, that I've been able to reach substantial goals by the time I was 25. I have recently produced a TVC that is going to air in August 2017, I've also worked on a number of short films, and many of Roar Film's recent projects including one with the University of Tasmania's Wicking Centre. This project in particular gave me experience in producing educational content. I would now confidently say I have experience in Drama, Documentary, Educational Content and Advertising content in pre production, shooting and post production.
As a person, I would confidently say that I work well with a range of personality types. I'm friendly, but stern when need be, I'm reliable and enthusiastic about all aspects of this industry. I'm not limiting myself to one particular type of filmmaking, because I believe that production skills are transferable, and I like to keep it interesting!
