'Tom is an outstanding camera operator and editor. He is genuinely enthusiastic about technology and arrives at shoots with a wide range of equipment. He is also full of ideas to make the film as strong as possible.
On top of that he is also a pleasure to work with which makes a big difference on demanding shoots.'
Jeremy Stern, BBC Producer/Director.
'Highly reliable, talented and professional camera operator. Always enthusiastic and determined to do a great job - whatever the deployment. Clearly very experienced - and it shows.'
Jason Dean, BBC Points West Editor
'...you helped turned a pretty dull walk-and-talk in a store-room into a really nice piece of television. Thanks for taking the time to get the high shots too. They made a big difference.'
