Production

Phillip Covell

 

Whether it’s working with a Producer to keep a production within its budget, or making creative and technical recommendations to Directors, Cinematographers and Heads of Department, so that they can realise shots and sequences, I use my technical knowledge and on-set experience for the benefit of productions.

 

I am experienced collaborating with production studios, broadcasting corporations and independent productions, supplying technology, services and personnel on all types of productions from Features and TV Drama, through Documentary, News and Factual, to Music Video, Concerts and Commercials.

 

Highly experienced in production crewing, I  have provided both equipment and personnel for productions, from individuals and PSC crews to whole units, often delivering demanding eleventh hour production requirements.

 

I have personally delivered production, technical and creative roles on over 300 productions across small to large, scripted and unscripted projects.

 

As creative agencies began developing their own production capabilities in the early 2000s, I advised multiple agencies, filling in knowledge gaps on equipment choices, crewing and the realisation of creative ieas.

 

As CEO of AVTN NewsNet247 I led creative strategy for editorial content creation, production development, programming, production planning and scheduling, rights management, and best practice compliance policies and governance.

 

I am always interested in, and open to discussing, Executive Producer and Senior Level roles on productions and in production companies.
