About

 
 

Simon is a passionate Cinematographer. Originally from Scotland, growing up in the Highlands, and now based in West London where he has lived since 1994 (still clinging on to his accent).

He has over 20 years experience as a camera operator working in a wide field of productions. As a DOP, he works primarily across Interviews, Actuality, Music and Promo, with plenty of experience across all other formats as well. From rigging and operating hidden minicams on award winning comedy shows like “My New Best Friend” and “Ant & Dec’s Saturday Night Takeaway”, to filming live performances for the BBC's coverage of Glastonbury. He was also an integral part of bringing the London Oympics to the populace working with Camera Corp on providing technical support and specialist cameras for the basketball arena, the velodrome and BMX circuit.

Simon loves solving problems and dealing with technically challenging shoots. He thoroughly enjoys the challenges of bringing a crew and kit together on a production and has experience from running single cam units up to large scale multicam set ups.
