I’m a 20 year old freelance videographer and I have been running my own business for around 3 years now. I have a strong interest in all different combat sports such as: MMA, muay thai, kickboxing and boxing. I often combine my freelance work with my love of combat sports and collaborate with a lot of fighters as well as companies affiliated with fighting.
I have made several documentary pieces surrounding fighters and the work they put in to get ready for a fight. While this work doesn’t have much monetary success due to fighters often not having a lot of money it’s something I really enjoy doing so I try to do it whenever I have a lull in paying client work.
A client I work heavily with is the global clothing brand Gym King. I produce a lot of their sponsored fighter orientated content, working with the likes of Tom Aspinall (UFC Heavyweight Champion), Liam Harrison (Muay Thai World Champion) and Callum Simpson (Boxing Champion). This work varies from long and short form content depending on which social channels they are wanting to post to.
In my career I would like to transition into the film industry and begin learning and understanding the nuances that come with it. The film industry is something that has always interested me and I believe my years of videography experience will allow me to adapt quickly and hit the ground running.
