MELLING
GEAR
I am available to hire as a camera operator / cinematographer / director of photography for all UK or international work. My rate includes quite a substantial kit list or I can put together a list for hired in kit depending on the scale of job.
All rates are per day and in-line with BECTU pricing. Please contact me if you would like a full kit list and pricing breakdown.
For larger jobs I can provide camera and lighting department crew members. These would be people that I have worked with before which I find adds an element of autonomy and therefore speed to a project.
I have over 10 years experience behind the camera so I am accustomed to using all the usual products. For example Arri Alexa, Arri Amira, Red Dragon, Sony F55, Sony FS7, FX9 and ENG cameras.
I am comfortable setting up and operating camera stabilisation devices such as the Ronin and Movi gimbals and jibs.
Happy to work alongside directors for pre-production duties such as shot lists, recce's, kit lists, storyboards and lighting plans.
Rate is based on 10 or 12 hour day and includes kit. Please contact me to receive rate card and kit list. If you would like to hire me without kit please get in touch for rates.
I have public liability insurance for up to £10million.
