Do you need archive research carried out for TV, Radio, commercials, feature films or exhibition displays?
Do you need a flexible, competitively priced archive researcher?
Do you want to make the best use of your archival or stock footage budget & images?
Do you want to plan your archive needs before you start production?

I've been working as an archivist, archive & stills researcher since 1990 & have provided film, video, stills and music for a wide variety of documentary, current affairs and entertainment programmes, from one-off UK projects to multi part international co productions, as well as AV displays for museums.

Every project is researched in both my existing databases and at all the relevant archives and stock footage outlets. Accuracy and thoroughness are keywords that matter.

I've drawn on material from Abu Dhabi, Australia, Austria, Belgium, Bermuda, Bosnia Herzogovina, Canada, Czech Republic, Egypt, Finland, France, Germany, Holland, Hong Kong, Iceland, India, Iran, Iraq, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Mozambique, Nepal, New Zealand, Nigeria, Norway, Pakistan, Poland, Portugal, Qatar, Romania, the Russian Federation, Serbia, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Tunisia, the UK, USA and Zimbabwe.

My interests include Buster Keaton, amateur footage and early / pre cinema. I'm always working on new ways of incorporating archive footage & subjects into documentary productions.

I can provide archive budgets, shot listing & databases, general research, tape libraries, mastering, clearance & licensing services for your production, from pre to post production
