About

Hello there! I'm a dedicated Camera Trainee with a passion for the art of filmmaking and a strong desire to advance in the industry. I'm currently based in the vibrant city of Manchester, and I also have a foothold in the creative hubs of Newcastle Upon Tyne and London.

My journey in the world of film began with a keen interest in camera work, and over time, I've honed my skills to become a competent and reliable Camera Trainee. I thrive in fast-paced, dynamic environments, and I'm not afraid to roll up my sleeves and put in the hard work required to get the perfect shot.

One of my defining qualities is my friendly and collaborative nature. I believe that effective teamwork and positive relationships are essential in the world of film production. I'm always eager to learn from experienced professionals and contribute to a productive, harmonious working atmosphere on set.

My aspirations are high, and I am committed to continuously expanding my knowledge and experience. My ultimate goal is to step up to the role of Clapper Loader and beyond. With my strong work ethic and determination, I'm excited about the journey ahead and the opportunity to create unforgettable cinematic moments.

If you're seeking a Camera Trainee who is dedicated, hardworking, and ready to grow alongside your production team, I'd love to connect and contribute to your next project.
