In my role as the Video Producer for Sense, one of the UK’s leading disability charities,
I was responsible for end-to-end video production from concept to final delivery.
This included project management, production, filming, interviewing, editing, colour grading, audio processing, and overseeing commissioned projects.
You can see a small selection of video projects on this page along with some feedback from colleagues about what it was like to work with me.

I produced, shot and edited the above Christmas campaign.

“David's communication before the event was brilliant and as a result we all had a clear plan for the day. During the day David was able to attend various sessions and capture footage in a way that was really supportive and mindful. He kept a low profile and was therefore able to capture footage that was 'upstaged' and natural, which was just what we needed.”
Rebecca Liddiard, Head of Children and
Young Peoples Services

I produced, shot and edited the above impact video

“We were impressed, not only by the films he produced, which helped drive engagement and spark discussion, but the tremendous level of care and support he provided to participants to ensure they had a positive experience. Personally, I have found David to be a friendly and warm personality, conducting himself in a professional manner.”
Damian Field, Head of Media and Campaigns

Sense’s shop volunteer recruitment video which I directed, produced, shot and edited.

“It truly captures the story of volunteering in our shops. A huge credit to you for your editing skills and for bringing together the ideas of such a diverse group of stakeholders to create something so special.

“From design to shooting to editing, I found David was very collaborative, keen to understand understanding requirements and willing to listen to ideas. Video edits to review were always close to expectation and David was happy to take feedback and make necessary amendments to ensure all were involved were happy. We've always been proud to show videos David has created, helping us to showcase the work we do to a range of audiences.” Louis Wickett-Padgham,

The Sense Awards videos were viewed more than 250,000 times on social media.

“The videos we produced for the Awards this year were really fantastic and that’s thanks to David – I’ve had loads of positive feedback from staff, stakeholders and even my friends who saw the video online but have no connection to Sense, so they’re definitely having an impact.”
