My background is in cameras. I started out assisting and focus pulling before moving up the ranks to Camera Operating for F1, BBC Dramas and eventually Second Unit Cinematography for Feature Theatrical Productions. During this time I set up Rogue Element Digital and Pure Digital Services, companies that specialise in all aspects of digital cinematography including camera rental, workflow services and location post. Both ran successfully until 2011 when I was offered a job by Technicolor to set up and run its Digital/Data Operations. As locations and digital dailies supervisor I was involved in a variety of projects including Jupiter Ascending, Mortdecai and The Man from UNCLE. New work includes Lecturer of Cinematography at University of Portsmouth UK.
Now running www.opensourcecinemauk.com to promote Open Source solutions for Digital Film Production for both hardware and software.

Thanks Kevin, I feel quite passionate about the prospects, driving software and code further to make sensors perform at their maximum but offering that extra choice. Starting with the cameras and the sensors with the colour pipeline is exciting. Then onto workflows, equipment, servers I really do feel Open Source is a brilliant fit for digital/data related to Film & TV Production.
