Do you need an experienced Norwich, Norfolk-based, Freelance Cameraman or Videographer to help with your filming projects?
I’m here to help support you and your productions.
Based in Norwich, Norfolk. I’m an experienced video professional offering my freelance filming – both land and aerial drone filming – service 24/7 in the UK, but mostly found filming in Norfolk / Suffolk, East Anglia and in the South East of England and London.
I’ve filmed for a highly diverse range of creative projects, for both ‘Post’ and for Live TV broadcast productions. I’m happy to be directed, or direct the action myself.
With 30+ years of experience, I’ve filmed 1000s of filming features, with clients like the UK and Welsh Governments, BBC, local TV, NHS, Sky Sports, local authorities and lots of businesses across the UK.
Filming Style
My style of shooting is natural, real human feel.
This is made possible by using a shoulder mounted support or with a saddle. This is without camera stabilization, and very rarely with an electronic gimbal.
The small natural motion artefacts when shooting shoulder mounted adds personality to the footage while communicating “this was filmed by a human being in the moment.”
A gimbal, while impressive, can sometimes make things feel too polished, too “clinical,” losing a sense of journey or being “there.”
My filming style adds beautiful character to the footage.
The Complete Filming Kit
All filming projects include the use of two cameras, all support equipment, along with optional video services.
Blackmagic Pyxis 6K
Recording up to 6K Open Gate so I can film in widescreen, vertical & square video at the same time. Extremely high quality, yet very usable BRAW files. Featuring 13 stops of dynamic range.
A fully rigged camera system with EVF, monitor & V-Mount batteries, plus the beauty of Blackmagic’s colour science Gen5.
Blackmagic Cinema Camera 6K Full Frame
The little brother to the Pyxis that is more nimble in tight filming situations while still producing incredible images up to 6K Open Gate, in BRAW.
Capturing video in Gen5 colour space, it works in tandem with the Pyxis – the images matching perfectly.
