Highlights

Josh Jones (Director)
Awesome camera man to work with, holding a wealth of knowledge which he was more than willing to share. No complaints or losing his rag when the going got tough with rough weather conditions. Also very punctual, arriving early on set, even though he had some distance to travel. Highly recommend, a joy to work with.
Alex Newson (DIT / Data Wrangler)
Seb is a great Camera Operator and working with over the past ten days helped me immensely. For someone young, he obviously well versed in his field and is enthusiastic to share his knowledge and his experience with others, like me. Since I am new fairly new to this area I was having to be taught how to use equipment and the terminology, Seb was kind enough to help me and such as using the clapperboard and how a professional crew functions. Without him, I feel that I would have actually known a lot less and not have been given this great overview of the industry. Seb can handle himself in any role and is able to integrate and get on with the cast and crew whilst remaining professional.
James Murphy (Production Assistant)
I worked with Seb on a challenging shoot and he made the experience so much easier. Despite terrible weather conditions, Seb was able to assist the DOP and director in creating visually brilliant shots through his vast knowledge of lighting, camera positioning, movement and composition. I was deeply impressed not only by his technical abilities, but also his ability to teach as working. I learnt a lot from him in just three days, and would highly recommend him as a camera assistant or a DOP to anyone. A very driven, insightful and creative professional, as well as an all-round great guy, Seb would not only fit in but contribute well to any project he works within.
Michael Edo Keane (Cinematographer)
Seb is a truly dedicated camera assistant. On a job with mimal crew, he switched between focus pulling to gaffing to camera operating with great aplomb. I would highly recommend Seb to any level of production.
Millan Hart (Camera Operator)
Best DoP and general filmmaking consultant I could ever ask for!
