Media Freelancer based in the Outer Hebrides
Jack Wolf Productions
Started off as a live stream engineer doing various live streaming jobs in the local area. Some of these events include local festivals, local mod's, and the royal national mod. This work eventually lead me into other aspects of the industry such as camera operating in a multi-camera production, rigging, music video filming, sound recording/mixing etc.
Having worked at the BBC in the Gaelic Radio (BBC Radio nan Gaidheal) as a Technical Operator, I have a large amount of knowledge in the broadcasting environment. From problem solving through to ensuring a high quality end result is produced whilst working with good communication with the presenter(s) and producer(s).
My work also includes the installation of Audio/Video systems in venues. This entails the initial on-site consultation, quote for equipment costs, installation, testing, and finally, providing training for the end-user of the system.
