CONSULTING

I have thirty years of deep experience in all aspects of media production, in a variety of environments ranging from the studio to the primordial bush; European boardrooms to North African rebel enclaves.

I have produced documentary still photography and motion picture content on five continents, for most major outlets and clients. I’ve worked in many extreme environments, under very extreme conditions. starting with film in the ’80s, into present day 4k and 8K production.
