Although I am an assistant I can also shoot 2nd Unit footage if there is a need. I can use mini-cams and have a limited experience assisting on Hi-Definition. I have also used an Aaton Prod Super 16mm film camera & an ArriCam LT.

I also have editing experience using the latest Avid XPress Pro editing system (See my 'Transatlantic Film') and also using Adobe Encore when it comes to making DVD's of an edited program.

I have experience using computers in a range of different aspects, such as building websites, using Macromedia Flash &
Dreamweaver & also for high end image manipulation using Adobe Photoshop.
