Award-winning Filmmaker, Producer and Series Producer with over 25 years’ experience
Welcome
I have been making films all my life. In 1997 I graduated from film school and won a BBC Picture This bursary. I then went on to work for the BBC for 8 years where I produced programmes across Documentaries, Specialist Factual, and Science. Since 2008 I have been freelance and have made content for UK and US broadcasters as well as international streaming services.
Award winning Filmmaker
I am an RTS, Broadcast and International Ecology Award winning documentary filmmaker, dedicated to making powerful, clear narrative driven films which focus on our common humanity.
I have made films about the war in Iraq, child sex abuse, the climate crisis, the NHS, smuggling, and the world of private security. Currently I am producing a new obs doc series for UKTV and developing a major history series about Britain and China.
Experienced Series Producer and Director & Camera operator
I am skilled at producing observational films, complex investigations, and real-life historical events. At the heart of my work is storytelling and a steadfast commitment to balance, impartiality and watching and listening without prejudice. I have made films all over the world including Iraq, Afghanistan, Russia, the United States and Australia.
Creative Leadership
My experience in leadership inspires and drives my team to realise the creative vision of the documentary from scripting, shooting, edit and final post. My goal is to make compelling films which cut through prejudice and pre-judgement allowing the audience to make up their own mind.
Testimonials
“Josh has worked at Century on a number of occasions, and he is always a welcome addition to any team. He takes on difficult subjects and in a calm and organised manner he’s able to extract compelling narratives and tell great stories. Josh is reassuringly well organised, and whether he’s working as a director or a series producer he always delivers.”
“Josh made a really great episode [of World’s Toughest Jobs] under some very difficult circumstances. He dealt with his contributors with real maturity and diplomacy. I would have no hesitation working with him again.”
“Josh delivered a stellar performance for us for Vinnie Jones in one of the toughest environments imaginable where guns, bears, gangsters, weather and language were a director’s nightmare. His facade of being a clever sweet guy belies the fire in his belly when he has to get the shots that count.”
“Josh is one of the few genuinely talented filmmakers. Not only can he tell a story well, but he can sensitively handle contributors, getting the best out of often tricky and difficult situations. I’d have no hesitation of working with him again.”
