Various roles, TV/film production
Scientific and factual content production for mainstream broadcasters in the UK and globally
I have developed and produced content and stories for a range of audiences, as well as setting up domestic and international filming trips with multiple contributors and locations. Highlights have included;
​
Inside Incredible Athletes - a feature length documentary that launched Channel 4’s programming for the London 2012 Paralympic Games
Horizon: How you really make decisions - part of the BBC's flagship science strand, a documentary that explored the mental shortcuts behind automatic decision making with Nobel Laureate Daniel Kahneman.
Patient 39 - a short film adaptation of William Boyd's short story 'Ghost of a Bird', starring Mark Bazeley and Alfie Stewart. Working with award-winning producer/director Dan Clifton, I co-produced the film. In addition to ensuring the successful development and production of the film, I coordinated a successful crowd-funding campaign that raised thousands of Pounds, and organised public facing screenings and panels, including one at the Royal Institution.
Sarah-Jayne Blakemore is Professor of Psychology at the University of Cambridge, UK, and leader of the Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience Group. Her pioneering research focuses on the development of social cognition and decision making in the human adolescent brain, and adolescent mental health. In 2015 this was recognised by the Jacobs Foundation, one of the world's leading charitable foundations dedicated to facilitating innovations for children and youth. I produced and directed a short film that profiled Professor Blakemore, and her research, which was shown at the awards ceremony for the prize. The full film can be viewed online.
