Creative at Passion Raw, the live action division of the Oscar award winning production company Passion Pictures.I was responsible for all pitches going out from our company which in turn facilitated new work with advertising agencies and global brands.The main focus of my job was to analyse scripts and liaise with directors and producers: translating their vision in inspiring, thought-provoking films. Researching and designing bespoke striking treatments at such an in demand company has enabled me to operate competently under pressure, within tight deadlines and high turnaround speeds.I undertook a breadth of different work from researching, treatment design, comp work, style frames, retouching, creative writing and film editing.Some of the campaigns we released during this time were for McVitie’s, Samsung circle, VW, Adidas and Centraal Beheer to name a few.

Working with a large and diverse team, from sound technicians to performing artists, in a hectic and lively environment has enabled me to comprehensively deal with the internal works of a large-scale production.Highly attentive customer service necessary with high profile guests often in attendance. The theatre itself sat 850 people so being calm and in control of large crowds was essential. At least five shows were in production a day and each had a tight turnaround of a maximum of one hour. During this timeframe we had to get the audience out, the set changed, auditorium cleaned, complete a sound check and usher the new audience inside. This means that I had to be competent at working under pressure, communicating effectively with a large company.Occasionally working behind the bar when staff was short helped add another dimension to my work skills.
