Capped with solid 21 years experience in the TV commercial industry in America started in a Craft
Service position and worked my way up through the different levels within the industry. I have been
working as a Producer for the last 13 years, working with well-known Directors from various
production companies.
I have excellent interpersonal skills, being able to manage groups from 35 to 150 cast and crew. My
level headedness and ability to get on with people from diverse backgrounds have resulted in close
relationships with production companies and advertising agencies, often leading to repeat business.
I succeed very well under pressure and enjoy being of service to the industry.
As Producer I have managed budgets ranging from $300 000 to $2, 5 million and I have been
successful in bringing the majority of project in under budget. Shootings days have ranged from one
day to three weeks. I have extensive experience in equipment such as the Red camera,
Photosonics, Phantom camera, D5, D7, Ultimate arm crane, Motion control, Super Techno and up to
5 camera units.
I have worked extensively with MJZ Productions - Sean Thonson over the last 12 years and in
between produced for a number of other directors and production companies as well.
I have been with Supply and Demand for the last 3 and a half years.
I have work all over the USA and many international countries such as Ireland, Iceland, Canada,
Brazil, Argentinia, South Africa, India, Germany, Dubai, Hong Kong, China New Zealand and
Mexico.
