9/11: Inside the President’s War Room
Devon Prods for BBC & Apple TV (Sept 2020 - July 2021) , Archive Producer
Member since 1994
With over 35 years’ experience in broadcast production, I’ve worked in a wide variety of genres including Documentaries, Entertainment, Fact Ent, Arts, Drama, Advertising & Corporate work, and experienced in sourcing clearing stills & moving footage from archives, broadcasters, production companies & UGC content worldwide. I know the right places to approach for each new project whatever the subject and am familiar with all film/tape/digital formats & 3rd party clearances.
Working as a P/D in my own right also means I have a wealth of production experience, know the importance of budgets & scheduling (and tight deadlines!), and all areas of post-production.
Though based in Oxfordshire, I am used to the London commute as well as working remotely.
