Other television credits include Spooks, Series 4 & 5 and Hustle for Kudos, Robin Hood for Tiger Aspect. I also shot "Stephen Hawking's Universe", for Darlow Smithson which was broadcast last year.
In the past I've shot major documentary series in both Russia and China for NBC, and worked as a documentary cameraman for all the main US networks filming just about everywhere, often working on my own.

I am finding these skills relevant when shooting rapid turnround virals and in other less cossetted circumstances.
