John Russell has 35 years experience
as a writer and director of video and film productions, television
commercials and multi-media programmes. Based near Nottingham, in the
centre of the England, and also in West Devon, his clients are dispersed
over the UK and in Europe. Although the credits list illustrates
a diverse range of programme types, his particular strength and interest
lies in in-depth coverage of engineering, technical and scientific
subjects for specified, expert audiences. A typical example of this
is the series of documentaries produced for Unilever (1998 - date) on aspects of
sustainable agriculture, a subject of particular interest.
Most programmes are undertaken through production companies or
advertising and marketing agencies and consultancies, rather than
directly for end clients. The amount of repeat work appearing in the
credits list confirms his ability to 'deliver the goods'.
His long experience means he has a large group of skilled
freelance colleagues with whom he can work to form a production
team appropriate for the project. His links with facilities
and service suppliers in the TV production business make
him the ideal contact point for any UK filming. He has
filmed in more than 20 countries around the world including
North and South America, Africa, the Far East, Australia and across
Europe.
With a varied career spanning editing and camerawork as well as
writing and directing, John Russell is creative, flexible and knowledgeable
in all aspects of production work. If your need is for real experience,
skill and assistance, don't hesitate to make contact.
John Russell is also chairman of
Giltbrook Media Group.
