What I'm looking for

I'm looking to continue producing, filming, and editing meaningful broadcast, community, arts, or creative content, using my experience across studio production, location shoots, and fast-turnaround post-production.

At ICTV, I set up the channel's new Indigenous Language news program and delivered two 30–40 minute news episodes under strict timelines in plain English and various Indigenous languages.

I handle location filming, interviews, studio lighting, sound mixing, Blackmagic switching, green-screen production, live vision switching, and simple news graphics. I've also trained newcomers on broadcast cameras and managed large video libraries for stock footage.

Previously at Barkly Regional Arts in Tennant Creek, I documented arts, music, and community events across remote locations, including the annual Desert Harmony Festival. I photographed artists and musicians, digitised artwork, and worked with local artists to prepare, film, and edit music videos.

I've spent more than 10 years in film and media, including fast-turnaround wedding editing, and have received recognition for photography and a low-budget music video.
