Chris Stone
I am a journalist and filmmaker who can produce, direct, shoot and edit produce.

As a journalist and filmmaker, I have the skills and experience to produce, shoot, direct and edit engaging and impactful stories. I can develop original ideas and pitch them successfully to commissioners, but I also love filming on location and immersing myself in the editing process.

My expertise lies in factual, specialist factual and current affairs genres, where I can transform complex and challenging topics into compelling narratives. I have a knack for handling sensitive and hard-hitting subjects with care, trust and discretion.

I have a strong background in politics, foreign affairs, history and science, which enables me to cover a wide range of topics and perspectives. I have a flair for presenting complex and controversial issues in a clear and balanced way, while also capturing the human stories behind them.

I have excellent scriptwriting skills, as well as being confident in directing on-screen talent and multi-camera shoots. I am proficient in shooting as well as in sound and lighting.
