“Alex’s brief was to capture the scientific activities and methods aboard [the RRS James Cook] to help the Britice-Chrono project communicate beyond just the scientific world. We have been amazed at just now well he portrayed the work and the people with a distinctly pithy and artistic slant. At the premiere of his work at our annual meeting, all were impressed, both technically and with the level of human feeling in the pieces. Films and images to inspire; just what we needed.”
Production
Alex provides multimedia production services to science projects both large and small. From podcasts, photographs and live video feeds to animation, immersive VR content and documentaries; Alex draws upon his extensive expertise to create unique material to bring environmental research to life.
Training
Specialist training for research scientists including: filmmaking and photography workshops, press release writing and media training, social media campaign support and guidance.
Outreach
Public events, education, social media, press packs...
Working closely with researchers from the grant application stage onwards, Alex designs, produces and manages outreach campaigns. Using multimedia from his own archives, existing imagery from research projects and original content shot on assignment, Alex's multimedia work is used to create:
EDUCATIONAL MATERIAL
SOCIAL MEDIA CAMPAIGNS
MULTIMEDIA PRESS PACKS

EXHIBITIONS, WORKSHOPS, TALKS AND PUBLIC EVENTS
Field, web and tech support
Field, WEB AND TECH Support
In addition to image curation, social media strategy development and tech/logistical support, Alex has substantial fieldwork expertise. For terrestrial projects with fieldwork components, this experience is particularly valuable as it allows him to conduct his work without disruption to the research schedule. For projects with challenging logistics or limited budgets, with a scientific background himself, he is qualified to move between field support and content creator; able to cover both roles equally.
With substantial field expertise on both terrestrial and offshore expeditions, and a portfolio spanning a wide range of disciplines, Alex's work includes:
field assistance
technical consultancy
web design
image curation
branding
