About Bern Leckie

Creative producer - I make illustrations, animations, websites, social media, podcasts, music, playlists and sound design for clients and communities to spread stories or create stimulating atmospheres. You might have heard Chill in the UK or SBS Chill in Australia. I've made a load more for companies, churches and community groups, and I'm especially interested in making more for education.Education and coaching - I love helping people find and develop their talents. In the 90s I ran syllabuses for an exam board, then volunteered as a school reading buddy in the 00s and now, and learned how to coach creative adults to be better presenters, producers and leaders. Now I'm also a school governor aiming for our local primary to excel in science and the arts.Music curator - I listen to thousands of new tunes every month to find the best available for radio stations and online listeners, across a variety of ages and moods. I specialise in finding family-friendly pop and chillout tunes.Curious analyst - I don't believe that creativity can be replaced with algorithms, but the right analytical tools can help us learn about what's working and what we can do better. So I've invested time learning how to research and treat data well, and I'm experimenting with new techniques (including AI) to help make predictions and grow understanding in a complex world. Disciple - I believe that none of this matters without God's love, which I have experienced massively. My faith is the foundation for work and the rest of life. I have spent some years helping others integrate their faith and work, and bring new creative energy into their companies.Specialties: music programming for radio, TV and online services, audio production, video production and animation, writing, story telling, graphic design and infographics, web design and systems including Wordpress, Woo Commerce and Joomla, creativity and performance coaching, leading group discussions that help people learn.

  • Severn Vineyard
    Online Producer
    Severn Vineyard Mar 2020 - Present
    Bristol, England, United Kingdom
    Church went online. In a reminder that it's all about the people, not the building, COVID-19 forced us to rethink how we connect, and I've been producing a weekly live gathering to help people find inspiration and support, easy to view and rewarding to participate in. It's stretched my video making, story telling and music production skills, but the best bit has been uncovering talents in lots of other people too.

    Finding music, programming and scheduling for a truly creative station aimed at people who have grown up loving the range, breadth and boldness of Britain's public service radio but feel they aren't well served by it any more. They like their favourite hits, but want more. They enjoy discovering new music, but don't consider themselves specialists or want to be forced into too much from samey-sounding genre stations. And they're bored of "variety"​ mixes which don't deliver anything fresh and unexpected. So we are always exploring, sharing and mixing up new finds with big current hits and a refreshing range of anthems and re-discoveries from the past.
