I’m Helen

A producer with a decade of experience that spans broadcast TV, digital SVOD, and branded content.

I make programmes driven by incredible individuals and their stories.

My recent producing credits include series’ for BBC, Netflix, ITV, C4 and C5. Previous clients I’ve worked for include Disney, Sony, Fox Searchlight, Yahoo, BHF, UNICEF and Music 4 Mental Health.

My bread and butter is setting up complex and demanding shoots the world over, identifying compelling storylines, and building relationships with never-before-seen contributors. Keeping in mind at all times both the creative direction of the piece, and its budget.

Having worked across documentaries, current affairs, factual entertainment, blue light and scripted comedy (can you tell I didn’t know what I wanted to do when I grew up?) I feel equally at home managing teams, directing crews, self-shooting, and editing.
