Welcome.

For my previous work please look at my website http://www.davidsmithfilms.com

If you are looking to make a video on any scale of production, I believe my experience and contacts will be of benefit to you. I am a self-shooting video Producer and Director based in London with my own camera equipment and editing capabilities; with over 10 years experience.

After earning my Film Production degree in 2004, I’ve constantly been developing new skills whilst working for the largest advertising agencies, including JWT, AMV BBDO, Grey and RKCR/Y&R.

I worked at the BBC for 3 years in my early career, which was an experience I am most grateful for. It allowed me many creative opportunities and responsibilities including Directing TV for BBC2, and formal training in multi-camera TV Directing; professional lighting; working with children; and health and safety.

Since I became freelance in 2011, I’ve co-developed, produced and directed a successful TV show about video games that was bought by Challenge, a Freeview channel. I’ve been Director of Photography and editor on shows for London Live; and I was made manager & producer for SBTV’s dedicated technology channel by Jamal Edwards; generating partnerships with well known international tech brands such as Google & Samsung.

In recent years I’ve been very fortunate to work on many great marketing campaign videos, including well known brands such as Airbnb, STA Travel, The Kraken Rum, Lenovo, 3 Mobile, EA, Movember and The Army. I have also shot and edited many videos for BAFTA and The BFI London Film Festival.

I can work alone or provide multiple crew members for larger scale projects, depending on your brief. I also work closely with reputable production companies, which I believe working together we can meet your criteria and surpass your expectations.

So If you are thinking about a potential video project or just want to discuss ideas and seek some advice please get in touch.

Thank you for taking the time to look at my page.
