After university, I started working as a Creative Services Manager at Libertine. Key responsibilities include trafficking the workflow of the studio and creative department and supporting the account managers in ensuring that projects are both completed on time and profitable. Last year, I was appointed to handle all TV/film production for the agency, and production credits include a series of online ‘How To’ videos for a leading DIY brand. I was involved from the very beginning of the production – I produced budgets and timing plans, acted as the main agency liaison with the production company, negotiated artist and tradesmen fees and assisted in managing the post production of the films. I also assisted a Senior Producer on producing TVCs for a beauty client of ours. It was a highly administrative role, allowing me to familiarize myself with the Clearcast process, sending out copy instructions and placing IMD orders. It was also a valuable opportunity to see the production process from start to finish, and to attend live shoots and voiceover sessions.

In 2015, I decided to pursue a career in audio post production as a Bookings Producer at Jungle. Key responsibilities include making bookings, managing the studios and engineers, and ensuring that clients/producers get the time and engineer they need for their project. The role of a Bookings Producer at Jungle is very client facing, so a good rapport with the clients/producers is essential. I also assist clients/producers with casting VOs for their projects, liaising with agents directly and negotiating fees. In collaboration with the engineers, I raise estimates for upcoming projects - deliberating creative decisions and logistical matters. I also assist the accounts department with costing up projects once they are completed. In the studio, I assist with guide voice overs and Foley, and on a number of occasions I have sung on demos for our sister music company, Native.
