A high definition, broadcast video camera
operated by a broadcast-trained operator

Trained in the BBC model in all areas of television production, my working experience extends from broadcast production, through film, to non-broadcast video.

  

Since producing Black Champagne (24th London Film Festival, special selection), which was sold to RTE and the German Cultural Institute, I have made numerous promotional videos with a community theme, as well as projects  to support local authority concerns for better community relations.

 

Nominated for a Lottery Award and funded by Northern Ireland Screen, my film The Journey examines the gulf that exists for many between homelessness and settled living.

 

The collaborative and speculative project Harvest Thanksgiving (below), a study of faith and acceptance, is planned for preview late in 2011.

 

 

With my comprehensive editing suite I can deliver superb High Definition footage, professionally lit and shot, to enhance your project,

whether you're searching for an experienced cameraperson or want

more intensive help with your video project.

trader soul
got into it
 
 
The action of Harvest Thanksgiving takes place in Trinity Church, the afternoon, evening and night before its demolition.
 
This is Sophie's journey of the soul as her increasingly confused mind remains fixed on preparing the church for Harvest Thanksgiving the following day.
 
An otherwise heavily dramatic situation is, however, 'leavened by Sophie's natural wit' as the drama unfolds.
 
Sophie is played with deep understanding by actress Nicola Lindsay, who was shooting scenes for RTE's 'Fair City' series while Harvest Thanksgiving was in production. Not only an actress and broadcaster, Nicola is also a novelist (Diving Through Clouds, Eden Fading, A Place for Unicorns, etc).
 
Colin Hanna, who plays Nicola's bullying (and closetly gay) son, was also shooting the BBC drama 'Hidden' alongside Harvest Thankgiving.
 
Denis Halligan (The Hunger) plays angry young Nationalist--and gay--Daniel, whose Christening was vetoed because his father was a Catholic.
 
Rev Ormerod (both living and dead) is played with verve and conviction by Patch Connelly, who is currently appearing in BBC Northern Ireland's 'Sketchy' series.
