I have been a location scout-manager, production manager and assistant director for over 25 years with experience in all formats of the film and television business, largely in New Mexico and previously in Los Angeles, 1991 - 1996, and Europe, 1984 - 1986. I am knowledgeable regarding crew, locations, services and equipment resources in NM and I have worked at some point in almost every department. I offer extensive location files and great references listed below and I am well networked, resourceful, efficient, organized and personable. My production experience includes notable TV series and features such as "Breaking Bad", "Longmire", "Clockers", "National Treasure" and "Hostiles" and numerous documentries, docu-dramas, industrials, commercials and photo shoots.

I also offer Production Coordination and Management Services, primarily on smaller productions and often in addition to providing Location Management Services.REFERENCES:"John Meade is incredible... if only the location managers and scouts in LA were as buttoned up as he is... without question one of the finest I have ever worked with. Every detail was meticulously planned, every sign put up (it was a long day with LOTS of travel and very distant locations). He is a star and you are very lucky to have him out there. He is beyond LA speed - world class! Alex Fisch, UPM, Skunk Productions.
